What should I pay attention to after having an abortion?

Many people have unexpected pregnancies due to failure to take protective measures, but since there are no permitted conditions, they have to abort the child. Or, because they did not have a physical examination before pregnancy, which leads to symptoms such as fetal malformation or absence of fetal heartbeat, they choose to abort the child. In fact, abortion is very harmful to the body, so women who have had an abortion must take good care of themselves during the confinement period. So, what should you pay attention to after an abortion?

You need to rest for at least 2 weeks after a miscarriage. 1. Do not eat raw, cold, spicy food, do not drink alcohol, increase nutrition, and mainly eat light and nutritious foods such as fish, meat, eggs, bean products and other protein-rich foods and fresh vegetables rich in vitamins. 2. Do not have sex within one month. It is easy to get infected. Contraceptive measures should be taken afterwards to avoid suffering again. Pregnancy should be more than half a year. 3. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the lower body to prevent gynecological infections. You can take a shower. If you have inflammation, you can take metronidazole or levofloxacin orally; if you have abdominal pain, you can take antibiotics and motherwort granules. 4. Keep warm appropriately for health care. Do not eat spicy food. Avoid sitting baths within 7 days as it is easy to get infected. 5. Vaginal bleeding usually lasts for 7-10 days, and no longer than 15 days. If the bleeding lasts for too long, the bleeding is greater than the usual menstrual volume, or is accompanied by obvious abdominal pain, etc., it indicates infection or incomplete abortion. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination.

Although abortion is a relatively safe minor operation, it will cause trauma to the endometrium and cervix. If you do not pay attention to recuperation, it may cause gynecological inflammation, menstrual disorders, closed cervix and intrauterine adhesions, secondary infertility and other adverse results after surgery, which will have a certain impact on the next pregnancy and delivery. Therefore, you must pay attention to the following recuperation at home after surgery:

1. Generally, you need to rest for half a month or a month. Because there is new trauma to the uterus and vaginal bleeding, retrograde infection is prone to occur. Do not take a bath before the bleeding is clean, and do not have sex within a month.

2. Pay attention to genital hygiene, such as washing the vulva every day, but be careful not to let sewage flow into the vagina.

3. During the rest period, you should do some activities to help discharge the blood in the uterus. Do not stay in bed all day.

4. Pay attention to nutritional matching and ensure protein intake, such as eggs, milk, fish, poultry, meat, etc., and eat more vegetables and fruits. But be careful to eat less raw food, cold food and hard food to avoid irritating the intestines and causing indigestion. You can take some soups and medicinal food according to your own preferences under the guidance of a doctor.
