How to do a good job of confinement

In real life, if a woman terminates her pregnancy 2-3 months after confirming the pregnancy, it is considered an abortion. It has a great impact on the health of the body. It will also easily damage the uterus and lead to thin endometrium. After a miscarriage, you need to sit for a short period of time to recover. Generally, you need to pay more attention to bed rest and eat more nutritious foods.

How long does the confinement period last?

If the pregnancy is less than 13 weeks, the woman generally needs to rest for about two weeks. If the period exceeds 13 weeks, it is best to take a month off. However, the specific rest time should also be adjusted according to the woman's own physical condition. Because miscarriage can have a significant impact on women's physical and mental health. Therefore, not only the body needs to recover, but also the psychological adjustment is needed, and more company and care from friends and partners are needed. If you don’t get enough rest, you may be infected with many gynecological diseases and even leave sequelae. Sequelae include acute and chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, endometriosis, cervicitis, cervical erosion, dysmenorrhea, salpingitis, infertility and fallopian tube obstruction.

The importance of the short confinement period is the same as the confinement period, because after miscarriage, the uterus, ovaries, etc. will also undergo a process of repair. If you do not pay attention to conditioning, your health may be greatly affected, and in severe cases it may cause infertility. Moreover, the short confinement period is also the best opportunity for women to improve their physical fitness. The short confinement period will expel the substances originally stored in the body, commonly known as "lochia" in traditional Chinese medicine, along with the fetus during miscarriage. Therefore, this is also a major cleansing of the body's endocrine system. After the uterus has discharged all the waste, a vacuum state will appear in the body, which can alleviate various sub-health diseases that women have before pregnancy, including physical deviations, such as gastrointestinal discomfort, anemia and other problems. These problems can be greatly improved or completely cured with the opportunity of confinement.

What is Xiaoyuezi?

The short confinement period is the time a pregnant woman spends after choosing artificial abortion or natural miscarriage. Compared with the long confinement period, it is milder in terms of time and degree. Although surgery for unexpected pregnancy is a relatively safe minor operation, it can cause damage to related organs such as the uterus and ovaries, so it also requires a repair process.

If you don't pay attention to conditioning, the root of the disease will remain. After surgery for an unexpected pregnancy, women generally need to rest for half a month or a month. This period of time is commonly known as the "small confinement period." In fact, there is only about a 30% chance of fertilization when sperm and egg meet. Among these fertilizations, about 23% will be aborted before pregnancy is clinically confirmed. The other 67% are confirmed to be pregnant, but not all of them can be saved. A small number of women will choose natural abortion in the first trimester. For those who do not choose abortion, some fetuses may die in the womb due to premature birth or fetal abnormalities during the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. They will not be able to survive to full term and the women must accept the termination of pregnancy.

If the "small confinement period" is not properly cared for, it is easy to cause gynecological diseases, such as vaginitis, endometriosis, dysmenorrhea, acute and chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, cervical erosion, salpingitis, cervicitis, fallopian tube obstruction, and even infertility.

How to have a good confinement period?

You should pay attention to rest after the abortion surgery, especially it is best to rest in bed for the first three days. After an artificial abortion, the endometrium will be left with a wound. If you get out of bed too early, vaginal bleeding may last longer, which is not conducive to the repair of internal wounds. Therefore, you should avoid excessive physical labor and exercise within half a month.

1. During the confinement period, you should increase your nutrition appropriately. Although the operation is very small, it will still cause a small amount of bleeding and your body will be damaged. Therefore, we should supplement some healthy foods rich in protein and vitamins such as eggs, soy products, lean meat, and fresh fish in time.

2. Because the operation will leave a wound on the uterine wall and be accompanied by a small amount of bleeding, it is necessary to observe the bleeding situation in time. This type of bleeding will generally stop gradually within 3-5 days as the uterus contracts, and will not exceed 10-15 days at most. However, once the amount of vaginal bleeding exceeds the amount of menstrual blood and lasts too long, and is accompanied by abnormal symptoms such as turbid leucorrhea, lower abdominal pain, fever, etc., you should worry about the presence of residues in the uterus and seek medical treatment as soon as possible.

3. About one month after an artificial abortion, women will resume normal ovulation, so you must continue to take contraceptive measures. Therefore, if you want to resume your sexual life with your spouse after an abortion, you must not be careless about contraception and must use the correct and appropriate contraceptive method to prevent another unwanted pregnancy.

4. Because miscarriage will cause the body's resistance to decrease, women should pay more attention to their personal hygiene. Especially after the uterus is damaged, increased vaginal discharge may occur. The vagina becomes the best place for bacterial infection and reproduction. Therefore, women should pay special attention to cleaning the vulva, use running water to wash the vulva, and disinfect the toilet paper used. Sexual intercourse should be prohibited within one month to prevent infection caused by sexual intercourse.
