Question: Hi, I had a D&C on the 3rd of september. While I took a contraceptive on the 13 (Sendinor 2). I guess I should have seen my period by now. But I haven't, Mean while I have been having really full and painful breast. Although I have had this issue before, when I had a D&c and I was been. placed on homonal drugs, and an IUD for months. Now my question is, Is it happening again?

Brief Answer:
Urine pregnancy test advised

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
This is very common after abortion to have irregular periods for 3-4 months and rather no periods for 4-6 weeks.
But still just do a urine pregnancy test and see the results.
In case test is negative nothing to worry and just wait for periods and then start your pulls again.
All in all it is pretty common and can take a while to resume your usual pattern of periods.
All the best.
Regards
Dr Manisha
