Clotting In My First Period After Medicated Abortion... Help Posted: 04-26-07 22:21pm
I have a medicated abortion almost two
months ago. At my follow up appointment,
she saw something in there and said she
thought maybe i was going to start my
period soon. She said if i didnt get my
period within a month, we should be
worried. And my pregnancy test came out
negative. Well, about 3 weeks after the
appointment, a week ago, i got my period.
At first it was just really heavy, but
then it lightend up. i was using tampons.
a couple of days ago, i passed a really
big blood clot. It even pushed my tampon
out. I passed about one or two more small
ones after that. I realized that maybe the
tampons where making it worse so im using
pads now. I didnt bleed all day yesterday,
untill last night when i passed a couple
more clots. not very big. Today i have
just been lightly spotting, it looks like
the end of my period. I was just wondering
if the clotting was normal.

I think clotting is normal, but carifairy
can tell you more.
I know when i had my first period i passed
a lot of clots, large and small. I am
sure you are fine.

After a medical abortion, clotting is
especially common in the first period
afterwards.

I had a bad expirience because im so
small. My uterus is the size of a small
lime. I bleed so much when took the pills
that my docter had to give me more
medication to tighten the blood vessels,
which led to horrible cramping in my
thighs. I had to keep going back to the
clinic every week for more follow ups. My
nurse said because of my own health
issues, i shouldnt do it again, and i
shouldnt have done it in the first place.
However, i dont regret it.

Bad cramps after abortion Posted: 08-12-08 08:46am
I have a question guys. I had my abortion
via Mentstrual Regulation (aka Aspriration
Procedure) July 7th. I have my period
now. I'm bleeding regularly but it seems
like my cramps are twice as bad. I take
800 mg motrin usually for every period for
the first 3 days (that's normally when I
cramp worse). I usually only take maybe
3-4 per day. It seems like day 1 and 2
(it's day 3 now) I took twice the amount.
I don't want to overdose but the motrin is
only lessening the cramps as opposed to
stopping the pain altogether. Has anyone
else experienced stronger cramps after
having an abortion during the 1st period?
