Recovery of Ovulation and Menstruation After Abortion: What to Expect

January 13, 2024

In general, the ovary can recover its ovulation function in about 22 days after an abortion, and menstruation usually resumes around 1 month after the procedure. However, for some people, it may be delayed for a few days, and menstruation within 40 days is considered normal.

The timing of menstruation after an abortion varies depending on the number of days of pregnancy. Generally, for early pregnancies, menstruation will resume in the second menstrual cycle after the abortion. However, due to individual differences in physical constitution, the endometrium may take a longer time to recover from the trauma caused by the abortion, and some women may experience menstrual irregularities due to induced abortions for medical reasons. In addition, changes in hormone levels caused by the abortion can also delay ovulation and subsequently delay menstruation. Therefore, it is advisable to seek a detailed examination at a hospital if menstruation does not resume after an abortion or for several months.
