Question
Hello, Doctor. Is it normal to not have any bleeding for two days after the abortion? I have only noticed a little dark discharge and some chest pain, but I have no other symptoms. I hope you can provide advice regarding my situation.

Hello! There are some signs after a successful abortion:
Vaginal bleeding, known as lochia, typically occurs afterward. While the amount of bleeding can vary, it usually lasts about 1 to 2 weeks, depending on each person's physical characteristics.
After a successful abortion, women may notice more vaginal discharge than usual. This discharge typically has no odor and lasts about 1 to 3 days. Additionally, the feelings of fullness in the stomach or tightness in the chest that were present before the abortion will gradually diminish.
According to you, you have a high chance of a successful abortion, it is still important to confirm this through medical evaluation. To ensure the best accuracy, you should visit a medical facility for an ultrasound. You can also go directly to the nearest hospital within the health system for a thorough examination.
