I had an abortion about a month ago. I am still bleeding very lightly but I feel like I'm still pregnant. I just feel bloated all the time especially after I eat. Does this mean it didn't work? I'm worried

Did you have a surgical abortion or a medical abortion?

A surgical, I was 8 weeks.

If you had surgical, it worked. It can take up to 4-6 weeks for bleeding to stop. Also, remember, that you had this procedure done a month ago, so there is a chance you are starting to menstruate again.

Would working out have anything to do with the bleeding and bloating also? I run everyday.

Very little. Watch what you are eating as far as bloating. Are you eating gassy foods?

I've been on a low carb diet, protein bars and nuts.

Well, there you go. That will cause gas in any belly. You need to eat a well rounded diet.

One of the worst diets, ever, get on a good balanced diet,
