How should women take care of themselves after hysterectomy?

Hysterectomy has a great impact on a woman, not only physically but also psychologically. However, this does not mean that the woman does not need maintenance after the hysterectomy. Maintenance methods are also very important to ensure the health of women. Various gynecological diseases have become one of the major diseases for women. So how should women maintain themselves after a hysterectomy?

Key points for uterine maintenance 1. Keep yourself clean and avoid sexual promiscuity

Some women do not treat their sex life correctly, and some even indulge in it, especially having sexual relations with multiple men, or not paying attention to sexual hygiene, and the uterus is the first victim. Unclean sexual intercourse is most likely to cause endometritis and cervical erosion.

The incidence of uterine cancer in women with cervical erosion is more than 7 times higher than that in women without cervical erosion. Vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse or a small amount of irregular bleeding is often an early sign of cervical cancer.

How should women take care of their uterus? Women must be aware that excessive sexual activity or pregnancy before marriage or early pregnancy will cause harm to their physical and mental health, and are often the direct cause of intrauterine infection, cervical erosion and uterine cancer.

Unclean sexual life, including the stimulation of the smegma on the male glans to the cervix, is also one of the factors that lead to uterine damage. During pregnancy, it is best to avoid sexual intercourse in the first three months and two months before delivery, otherwise it will cause miscarriage or premature birth and cause great damage to the uterus.

Key points for uterine maintenance 2. Perinatal care and prevention of uterine prolapse

Regular prenatal checkups after pregnancy are an important guarantee for the safety of mother and child. If prenatal examinations are neglected, fetal abnormalities cannot be discovered in time, which often leads to serious consequences such as dystocia or uterine rupture.

If the labor process is too long during difficult labor, multiple births, or post-term delivery, excessive force or improper handling may cause damage to the ligaments around the uterus and, in severe cases, uterine rupture. There are also cases where women do not pay attention to rest after giving birth, and often squat to work or do heavy work, which increases abdominal pressure. The uterus will shift downward along the vagina from its normal position. This is medically called uterine prolapse, or "uterine prolapse" for short.

The patient has a feeling of falling in the lower abdomen, vagina and perineum, and experiences back pain, local swelling, ulcers, increased leucorrhea, etc. In severe cases, the bandages may remain outside all day and must be supported by hand to be put back in, which is extremely painful.

The above is the maintenance method for women after hysterectomy. The uterus is an important physiological feature for women. So after the removal, in order to prevent the disease from worsening, you should develop good eating habits. If some abnormal reactions occur, you should go to the hospital for examination in time. Don’t seek medical treatment or take medicine indiscriminately. Once the disease is discovered, treat it in time.
