How long does it take to recover from a painless abortion?

Nowadays, painless abortion surgery has become more and more perfect and more and more popular. The damage to the female body is getting smaller and smaller, but no matter what, it is still an operation after all, so postoperative recovery is very important, including attention to diet, cleaning, activities and other aspects. So, how long does it take to recover from a painless abortion?

Let us first understand where the main damage is caused by abortion. For a period of time after an artificial abortion, the trauma on the endometrium has not yet recovered, the cervical opening has relaxed, the original mucus plug in the cervix (which prevents bacteria from entering the uterine cavity) has been removed, and a 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.

To avoid infection, pay attention to cleanliness. Wash with warm water 1-2 times a day, and change menstrual pads and straw paper frequently. Do not take a sitz bath within 2 weeks or before vaginal bleeding is cleared, and do not have sex within 1 month to prevent genital infection. If you have fever, abdominal pain or abnormal odor of vaginal discharge, it may be caused by infection, and you should seek medical attention in time. After the placenta is detached during artificial abortion, there may be a small amount of bleeding on the wound left on the uterine wall. In this case, as the uterus contracts and the wound is repaired, vaginal bleeding will generally stop in 3-5 days, and no more than 10-15 days.

Once the wound is almost healed, it is basically recovered, which usually takes about a month. Therefore, women should not have sexual intercourse within one month after abortion, pay more attention to local hygiene, and avoid eating spicy, irritating, or raw or cold food. Mainly use pure cotton and breathable underwear. You should go to the hospital for the first check-up one week after the abortion to see whether the abortion is clean and the recovery situation. The second check-up needs to be done 3-7 days after the last menstruation.

Abortion surgery can cause considerable harm to women. Therefore, after the operation, you must pay attention to your body's recovery. The first thing is to prevent bacteria from growing and entering the uterine cavity to cause infection, so pay attention to cleanliness. Then eat a light, non-irritating diet. The most important thing is to have regular checkups to avoid delaying treatment.
