bleeding 1 month after abortion Posted: 03-03-08 17:38pm
I had a medical abortion on February 9. I
was about 6 weeks pregnant at the time. I
did my follow up and was told everything
had worked properly and that there were
some blood clots that still needed to be
passed.
It is now almost one month later and I am
still bleeding. Last week I had what I
thought was a period, which then trickled
to spotting and then stopped. Two days
later, on Saturday, I had sex with my
fiance for the first time after the
abortion and I began to bleed heavily.
I am now discharging dark tissue (not
blood) and I am a little concerned.
I am 28 years old and physically fit in
good health. I do suffer from low blood
pressure and I was told that I was
borderline anemic when I went in for the
abortion. I am not sure if either of those
play a role.
I would like to know if this is normal or
something more serious.

I'm really not sure, but when dealing with
something like this I really think you
should contact your doctor and check up to
make sure.
I'll copy this to the abortion forum to
see if someone else can help...

That could likely be a period, and it is
VERY normal to have clots in your period
after a medical abortion.
But...
MEDICAL abortion causes more bleeding than
surgical, we tell women to expect 9-23
days of bleeding..
