What are the precautions after abortion?

There are some girls in society who get pregnant before marriage. After being prejudiced by the world and misunderstood by their families, they will have abortions. Although abortion is very common, it is also harmful to women's bodies. If abortion is not done carefully, it will be very dangerous to the girl's health throughout her life. So what are the precautions after abortion? The following is a detailed introduction to the precautions after abortion.

1. Pay attention to rest and strengthen nutrition. After the abortion, you should rest in bed for 2-3 days, then you can get out of bed and move around, gradually increasing the activity time. Do not engage in heavy physical labor or work in cold water within half a month after the abortion to avoid catching cold. Pay attention to increasing nutrition, eat more protein-rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, bean products, and fresh vegetables rich in vitamins to promote early repair of damaged organs.

2. Keep the vulva clean and strictly prohibit sexual intercourse. After an abortion, the cervix has not completely closed and the endometrium also has a repair process. During this period, special attention should be paid to keeping the vulva clean and hygienic. The sanitary napkins and underwear used should be washed and changed frequently. Do not take a sitz bath within half a month after the operation to prevent dirty water from entering the vagina and causing infection. If you have sex too early after an abortion, it can easily cause acute endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and may also lead to secondary infertility. Therefore, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited within one month after the abortion.

3. Observe the bleeding situation. If vaginal bleeding lasts for more than one week after an abortion, or is even accompanied by lower abdominal pain, fever, turbid and smelly leucorrhea, and other abnormal symptoms, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up visit in time.

4. Adhere to contraception. After abortion, the ovarian and uterine functions gradually recover, and the ovaries ovulate on schedule. If you do not persist in contraception, you will get pregnant again soon. Therefore, after an abortion, you should choose reliable contraceptive measures as soon as possible, and you must insist on contraception as the main method. You cannot use abortion as a contraceptive measure.

Once a girl has a miscarriage, especially the first miscarriage, she must rest well and never overwork herself. She should replenish some light and fresh vegetables and fruits in time, and pay more attention to supplementing some nutritional vitamins. The above points should be paid attention to, especially within one month after the miscarriage, you must avoid having sex.
