bleeding 7 weeks after abortion
Posted: 01-29-08 02:30am

i had an unfortunate abortion 7 weeks ago (that i fully regret and never even wanted done in the first place) anywho..i just wanted to know if its normal to still be bleeding well into my 7th week after getting it done because it says in my pamphlet that bleeding should only occur for about 4-6 weeks so i kinda figured it wasnt normal.. so i ended up going crazy thinkin it wasnt normal and now im on the internet trying to find answers!!!! so, again, my question is...is it normal to still be bleeding well into my 7th week after my unfortunate abortion, because i was told it was only supposed to last the latest until week 6, and well im definitely passed week 6..please help me!!!! ASAP

thank you.

I've never heard of the actual bleeding time but my friend had one done and she bleed for 7 and a 1/2 weeks and was fine. I'd call the Dr. who preformed the abortion on you and check just to make sure everything is going okay. Goodluck hun. Smile

Bleeding after an abortion can be caused by a umber of things.

IF you started birth control after your abortion, it could be causing some of the bleeding.

ACTIVITY causes post abortion bleeding to be worse. AFTER an abortion you are supposed to take it easy for 1-2 weeks, no exercise or heavy lifting.
