How long does it take for the uterus to recover after an abortion?

Abortion is very harmful to women's health. You need to take good care of your body after an abortion. Generally, the uterus of a woman will return to normal in about a month after the abortion.

For women who do not plan to have children, they must take contraceptive measures. The harm of abortion is very great.

How to know the uterus is restored after miscarriage

The most obvious way to judge the recovery of the uterus after artificial abortion is vaginal bleeding. The amount and time of vaginal bleeding are directly related to the recovery of the uterus. At the same time, abdominal pain and distension also indicate that the uterus has not recovered well and abnormalities have occurred. At this time, the patient should pay attention to rest and do a good job of nursing. At the same time, patients can also undergo B-ultrasound examinations to confirm the recovery of the uterus. Patients should go to the hospital for a follow-up examination one week after the abortion. If there are any problems during the follow-up examination, treatment should be taken. After treatment, they should be re-examined. In this way, they can understand the recovery of the uterus and avoid accidents.

In order to avoid slow recovery of the patient's uterus after artificial abortion, the patient should pay attention to rest, eat more nutritious food, and pay attention to personal hygiene to prevent bacterial infection. More importantly, sexual intercourse should be abstained from for one month. Having sexual intercourse too early will bring bacteria into the vagina and then into the uterus, which will affect the recovery of the uterus.

Patients need to know that although artificial abortion is a way to solve pregnancy, it is very harmful to the body. Patients should take precautions and avoid unwanted pregnancies. Therefore, they should use contraception during sexual intercourse. Contraceptive methods can be adopted according to the patient's situation, such as birth control pills, condoms, IUDs, etc.

How long after abortion can I have sex?

Generally speaking, you should wait until your body recovers after an abortion before having sex. The lochia will be clear two weeks after the abortion, but you have to wait at least a month or 40 days before resuming sexual intercourse. This is not only because after an abortion, a person's mental state and physical strength need a recovery process, but more importantly, the uterus, ovaries and other sexual reproductive organs need a full repair and adjustment period.

If you have sex too soon after an abortion, the bacteria brought into the vagina can easily ascend and cause gynecological diseases such as endometritis. Abortion surgery is a curettage, which has already caused damage to the endometrium. The natural immune system of the female reproductive tract is reduced. If you have sexual intercourse within a short period of time after the operation, it will increase the chance of infection, cause secondary damage to the endometrium, and even cause endometritis, salpingitis, and even induce infertility. Therefore, after an abortion, you must wait until your body recovers before having sex.

Generally, you cannot have sexual intercourse within one month after painless abortion. Having sexual intercourse too early may cause infection, poor uterine recovery, etc., and the possibility of pregnancy is not ruled out. Sexual intercourse is prohibited within one month after painless abortion. This is because the uterus is in a state of recovery in a short period of time after abortion, and the resistance and immunity are relatively low. The cervix is ​​open. Sexual intercourse at this time is particularly prone to infection and gynecological inflammation. In severe cases, it can lead to infertility.

After an abortion, you should have a normal menstrual period before having sex. Having sex too early can increase the chance of infection. In addition, after the abortion, you should pay attention to keeping the vulva clean and observe the postoperative bleeding; insist on contraception; pay attention to rest and increase nutrition.
