                                    Brief Answer:
wait for periods
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Mr XXXXXX,
Usually periods commence within 30-45 days of abortion so just wait for a couple of weeks and in case you still don't get them then visit your gynecologist.
You might need an ultrasound after examination by her to delineate the cause.
So there is nothing to worry as yet. Thus just relax.
All the best.
