What Causes Irregular Bleeding Post Abortion?

default
Posted on Wed, 7 Oct 2015
Question: Hi,
Had a miscarriage Labor Day weekend. I am having this weird cycle of bleeding/passing a clot then the bleeding will basically stop and then two days later I will pass a clot start bleed for a couple of hours and taper back down to basically no bleeding. Every time this happens I get extreme fatigue. It's like I think I'm almost done and it starts up again. Is this normal?

Thanks for your help!

Brief Answer:
Can be due to hormonal disturbance or retained products.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The irregular bleeding that you are having can sometimes happen after an abortion due to a hormonal disturbance. It is best to consult your gynecologist and get an ultrasound scan done first to be sure that there are no retained products inside the uterus. In case the abortion is complete then you can get hormonal tablets prescribed from her to control the irregular bleeding.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
