After undergoing a medical termination of pregnancy (mtp) on december 1st when I was at five weeks of pregnancy, I bled for ten days. Following an ultrasound on december 11th, my doctor confirmed the successful abortion. Bleeding ceased completely around december 19th. However, on december 27th, I began bleeding again for two weeks, averaging 1-3 xl pads per day. The bleeding worsened by january 14th, prompting me to consult my gynecologist who prescribed trapic mf thrice a day for three days. Although the bleeding reduced to one pad per day, it persisted. On january 25th, another ultrasound revealed successful abortion but diagnosed me with pcos in my right ovary. The doctor then prescribed ovuloc tab for 21 days, yet the bleeding continued intermittently?some days one pad, other days two, and sometimes just spotting. On february 8th, heavy bleeding akin to periods resumed, leaving me feeling frustrated and unsure of what to do. I'm seeking clarification on whether this post-mtp bleeding is normal.

Post mtp bleeding is not normal. It could be a side effect of the medicines used for abortion or could be a hormonal imbalance which has surfaced now. Let the cycles resume normally and be careful that a situation for abortion does not arise.
