What should you pay attention to after a miscarriage?

Nowadays, abortion has become a common phenomenon. Many female friends have unexpected pregnancies, but they are not married yet, or do not plan to have children so early, so they can only have an abortion. However, abortion is also very harmful to the body, no less than a cesarean section. Therefore, even if the operation is done, you still need to take good care of your body and not bury hidden dangers to your health. So what should you pay attention to after abortion?

1. Keep the breast meridians unobstructed after abortion

During miscarriage, the newly developed mammary glands stop growing, the alveoli become smaller and even disappear, and the mammary glands recover. However, this recovery is usually incomplete, so it is easy to induce lobular hyperplasia of the breast. Causes breast lumps and breast pain. If the meridians are blocked, there will be pain. If you dredge the meridians as soon as possible, the suddenly stagnant Qi and blood will start flowing. You can avoid breast lumps and breast pain caused by improper confinement.

2. Careful care of the uterus after miscarriage

During medical abortion, the mother's cervix and endometrium are inevitably damaged, and the wounds to the cervix cause the uterus's own resistance to decrease. The cervix itself is a susceptible site for HPV infection, and modern science has confirmed that HPV infection is directly related to cervical cancer. During the confinement period, the uterus must be fully protected, including increasing the resistance of the uterus, promoting rapid repair of the uterus, and completely expelling blood stasis.

3. Pay more attention to rest and diet after medical abortion

Traditional Chinese medicine points out that the care required for a miscarriage is ten times that of a normal birth, which means that abortion or miscarriage suddenly terminates the normal physiological process of the human body, which causes greater harm than a normal delivery, so you must pay attention to recuperation. Although it doesn’t mean you have to stay in bed for 10 months, you should at least stay in bed for half a month after a miscarriage.

Try to eat well, sleep well, pay attention to increasing nutrition, enhance the body's resistance to disease, and promote the early repair of damaged organs. After abortion, you should eat more protein-rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, and bean products, and fresh vegetables rich in vitamins to speed up your body's recovery. Dietary supplements should be started immediately; raw, cold, and irritating foods should not be eaten. If conditions permit, the normal postpartum diet can be referred to. In addition, the daily life should be based on the taboos after delivery, do not take a bath, do not drink cold drinks, keep warm clothes, and avoid catching cold.

Through the above introduction, everyone is clear about what to pay attention to after miscarriage. You must know that the harm of miscarriage is still very large. Female friends must also take good care of themselves after the confinement period like a mother and regulate their bodies so that they can return to normal as soon as possible. Otherwise, it is easy to threaten their health.
