Light period after abortion
I had a medical abortion procedure 8 weeks ago. I was 6 weeks pregnant. The bleeding stopped after 2 weeks and I was fine since then. A week ago, I had a very light period, so light that I wasn't even sure if it was a period at all! There was some fresh blood but mostly brown mixed with mucus-like discharge. There wasn't noticeable clots either. Usually I'd have abdominal and back cramp plus breast tenderness, but this time there was nothing. I read here that a lot of women have heavier bleeding the first period. Has anyone experienced similar light periods after abortion?
Please dear.
has your period come back to normal since your last post.
another question have you tried to conceive since then.
was it successful?
Thanks

omg i did medical abortion. & 1st period was kinda heavy like medical abortion bleeding was. but 2nd period now is brown and 10 drops 1day and 4 drops 2nd day.....this is crazy abnormal. no cramping just slight left ovarian pain 3 and 1 day before "period" for 30min-hr felt like i just wanted a warm heat pack. other than that nothing. weird. if i remember, i'll come back & tell u about days 3+ if i have any!!
I had a vacuum abortion in July and I was 9 weeks pregnant. Since after the abortion, I been having light periods that lasted 2 days tops. It wasn't until yesterday, I experienced abdominal cramps and a medium/heavy flow but at night it switch to a very light flow. I've been told that its normal to have light periods after an abortion and that your periods should go back to normal after 6 months since the procedure.
Hey I also had a abortion when six weeks pregnant about six weeks ago and i am having the exact same. It's like my body is trying to have a period but can't. I don't think it's anything to worry about it will probably take months till our bodies are back to normal. I am not going to worry about it unless it is still like this after six months or so.
no, we both understood what you were talking about- the procedures are very similar- as annie said...
My first period after my d&c was the same- very light... once my body got back to normal then they started to be more normal... there was also a longer time period between periods, 5 to 6 weeks instead of my normal 4 weeks for the first 2 months following my d&c...

After a D&C that I had, my first period came on schedule but it was quite light. Maybe this is similar since the procedure is similar even if done for a different reason.
