No period for 3 months after abortion. Is it normal?

When should you worry about missing your period?

Rest assured, if you have not had your period this month or even longer, there is no danger. There are many different reasons why you may not have your period for a while: some are well known, others are more surprising.

Is it normal not to have your period for a month?

Did your period not start on the expected date or on the following days? Or have you even missed your period for 2 months or more? It's time to understand what's going on in your cycle. The first explanation, of course, is the beginning of a pregnancy. You can buy a pregnancy test at the pharmacy to find out for sure. If you have no period and the test is negative, here are some other possible causes.

No period after pregnancy

After giving birth, it is normal to have an absence of periods for some time. On average, they return 6 to 8 weeks after the birth, sometimes much later if you are breastfeeding.

The absence of menstruation lasts for the same length of time after a miscarriage.

After a medically induced abortion, the absence of menstruation also lasts for one and a half or two months, but as contraception is usually started immediately after the abortion, the menstruation does not reappear.

If you stop or pause taking the pill, the absence of periods...

If you take the pill, the bleeding you have after each pack is not a real period because ovulation is blocked by the hormones. They are therefore rarely heavy and sometimes they simply do not occur, especially if you are taking a micro progestin-only pill. But even if there is no period on the pill, or no period during the pill break, contraception is still normally effective.

Good to know: there is normally always a small amount of bleeding during the week's break between two packs of the oestroprogestogenic pill. If there is amenorrhoea, a pregnancy should be investigated (sometimes due to a missed pill, for example).

After stopping the pill, you may have no periods for a few months. If it lasts longer than 4 or 5 months, do not hesitate to consult a gynaecologist or a midwife: they can prescribe a hormonal treatment so that everything returns to normal.

If you are wearing a hormonal IUD, it is logical that you should not have any periods at all, as the IUD blocks ovulation. There are different dosages for hormonal IUDs, so you may have your period if the dosage is low.

However, if you notice that you have no periods while wearing a copper IUD, this is not normal: take a pregnancy test or consult a doctor or midwife.
