A member asked:

How can you know your uterus is back to normal after surgical abortion?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It takes time: It takes time for your uterus to fully recover after a surgical procedure. For a d;c, a full 4-6 weeks is required for the healing process to complete. It's also a good idea to follow up with your obgyn to get a pelvic exam just to make sure you are healing properly.
