What should you pay attention to after abortion

There are two types of abortion: natural abortion and artificial abortion. But no matter which type of abortion it is, it will cause certain harm to women. If they do not take good care of themselves and their bodies do not recover after the abortion, it will cause women to have certain diseases. So, what are the things you need to pay attention to after a miscarriage? This will be introduced in detail below!

1. Improve nutrition

There is more or less blood loss after miscarriage, and coupled with the pregnancy reaction in the early pregnancy stage, the body will generally become weaker after miscarriage, and some people will also develop mild anemia. Therefore, after miscarriage, you should eat more nutritious supplements, as well as fresh vegetables and fruits. Such as lean meat, fish, eggs, chicken, milk, seafood, soy products, etc.

2. Pay attention to personal hygiene

During a miscarriage, it takes a certain amount of time for the cervix to open and close completely, so special attention should be paid to personal hygiene after a miscarriage. Keep your private parts clean, wash and change your underwear frequently, and do not take a bath in a tub within half a month. It should also be pointed out that within one month after abortion, the uterus has not yet fully recovered and sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited to prevent infection.

3. Get enough rest

Prevent overwork. You need to rest in bed for two weeks after miscarriage. Do not participate in physical labor too early and be careful to prevent excessive fatigue and cold and dampness. Otherwise, uterine prolapse is likely to occur.

4. Don’t rush to get pregnant again

It takes 4 to 5 months for the endometrium to fully return to normal after a miscarriage. During this period, you should be careful to avoid getting pregnant again, because getting pregnant before the endometrium has returned to normal will have an adverse effect on fetal growth and future delivery.

5. Pay attention to contraception to avoid pregnancy again

After abortion, the ovarian and uterine functions gradually recover, and the ovaries ovulate on schedule. If you don't stick to contraception, you will get pregnant again soon. Some women get pregnant again in the same month after having an abortion, which has a greater impact on the body. Therefore, reliable contraceptive measures should be chosen. Abortion can only be used as a remedial surgery as a last resort after contraceptive failure. Abortion should never be used as a contraceptive measure to protect the physical and mental health of women. If you get pregnant again, try to use hysteroscopic embryo retrieval, which causes the least damage to your body.
