Postpartum hemorrhage is excessive bleeding following the birth of a baby. About 4 percent of women have postpartum hemorrhage and it is more likely with a cesarean birth. Hemorrhage may occur before or after the placenta is delivered. The average amount of blood loss after the birth of a single baby in vaginal delivery is about 500 ml (or about a half of a quart).
You can do a medical abortion at home until the 12th week of your pregnancy. More scientific information: Medical abortion has been shown to be effective through the first trimester (12 weeks) and has been successfully used during the second trimester.
If you don't get a period within 6 weeks, go to your doctor. Doing an at-home pregnancy test within 8 weeks or so of an abortion is not always reliable because you may still have hormones left over from your earlier pregnancy that would throw off the results. know for a fact that you can become pregnant within the first month after an abortion. I had a miscarriage and I was told to have VERY safe sex for three months because it is possible to get pregnant even before your first period comes after the abortion.
