How long does it take to get pregnant after uterine curettage?

Many times, abortion is used to terminate pregnancy, but because the operation is not very thorough, the uterus is often unclean. At this time, uterine curettage is needed to clean it again. After two surgeries, many women are concerned about when it will take to get pregnant again. So, how long does it take to get pregnant after uterine curettage? Let’s take a closer look below.

Generally, you have to wait at least half a year after surgery before you can get pregnant, otherwise it will affect the development of the fetus.

In order for the body to recover as quickly as possible after curettage, you should pay attention to proper rest after the operation, and it is best to rest in bed for the first three days. The most important thing is to wait one month after the operation before resuming sexual life. Although it is clean, the endometrial trauma has not fully recovered. If you have sexual intercourse too early, the bacteria brought into the vagina can easily ascend and cause gynecological diseases such as endometritis, so it is best to abstain from sexual intercourse within one month.

After curettage, a large area of ​​wound will be left in the uterine cavity. At the same time, the vaginal wall and cervical opening will be opened, and the cervical mucus plug will disappear. In particular, the secretions of the cervix and uterine cavity are alkaline, which changes the acidic environment of the vagina and makes it easy for pathogens to reproduce, which may increase inflammatory infection. Therefore, postoperative care measures must be taken after the operation.

Things to note after surgery:

1. You need to rest for 2 weeks after curettage, prevent colds and eat more nutritious food to restore your body to normal as soon as possible.

2. For a period of time after the curettage, the trauma on the endometrium has not yet recovered, the cervical opening is relaxed, the original mucus plug in the cervix (which has the function of preventing bacteria from entering the uterine cavity) has been removed, and the new mucus plug has not yet formed. If you do not pay attention to the hygiene of the vulva at this time, bacteria in the vagina can easily enter the uterine cavity and cause infection. Therefore, after induced abortion, you should keep the vulva clean and hygienic, and change menstrual pads and toilet paper frequently.

The above is an introduction to how long it takes to get pregnant after a uterine curettage. I hope it will be helpful for women to understand. After the uterine curettage operation, the damage caused to the female body is still relatively large, and it will damage the uterine cavity, which requires a certain amount of time to recover. After the operation, women should actively rest their bodies and wait until they meet the conditions before becoming pregnant again, which is the safest.
