What Causes Swelling In The Abdomen After An Abortion?
Question: After medical abortion my stomach looks bigger like pregnancy
Brief Answer:
Can be due to hormonal changes.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The bigger stomach after abortion can be due to a weight gain related to hormonal changes during pregnancy.
After the medical abortion, it takes 6-8 weeks for the body to come back to normal. The abdomen can become lax also due to the effect of hormones. It is better to avoid fatty foods and go for regular abdominal exercises to get back to shape.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow-up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
