A member asked:
I had a surgical abortion 6 weeks ago at 8 weeks. my bleeding stopped for several weeks but my current period is at 19+ days. is this normal?

Not normal : The first menstrual cycle after an abortion is often a little "off" but bleeding for 19 days is not normal and should be evaluated. Hopefully you are considering starting birth control to prevent another unplanned pregnancy. This will also give you menstrual cycle control.
