Hi,
The absence of periods 5 weeks after an
abortion could suggest several things, including:
*
Hormonal changes: After an abortion, it may take some time for your hormone levels to return to normal. This can cause
irregular periods, delayed periods, or even missed periods.
* Infection or complication: It is possible that you may have developed an infection or other complication after the abortion, which can affect your menstrual cycle. It's important to contact your healthcare provider if you experience any unusual symptoms or have concerns.
* Pregnancy: Although it is rare, there is a small chance that you could be pregnant again. If you have been sexually active since your abortion and have not used
contraception, it is possible that you could be pregnant. It's recommended that you take a pregnancy test to rule out this possibility.
The intensified period symptoms, milky discharge, and breast tenderness you are experiencing could be related to hormonal changes or a possible infection. It's best to speak with your healthcare provider to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
