What should women eat after abortion?

In the event of an unexpected pregnancy and the child cannot be saved, abortion is the most common option. Although the level of abortion technology is very high now, it still has a certain impact on women's bodies. In addition to getting a good rest after an abortion, dietary adjustment is also very important. So, what should a woman eat after having an abortion? Let’s take a look below.

After miscarriage, eat more nutritious foods, as well as fresh vegetables and fruits. Within half a month after an artificial abortion, you should eat more chicken, lean pork, eggs, milk, beans, and bean products. Avoid eating irritating foods, such as chili peppers, alcohol, etc., as these foods can stimulate congestion of the sexual organs and increase vaginal blood flow. In addition, make sure to get enough iron to prevent anemia after miscarriage. The best time for nourishing is half a month. For those who are weak, have poor physical condition, or have lost a lot of blood, the nourishing time can be appropriately extended as appropriate.

Diet adjustment after miscarriage should focus on the following points:

1. Within half a month after artificial abortion, 1.5 to 2 grams of protein should be supplied per kilogram of body weight. Therefore, you can eat more chicken, lean pork, eggs, milk, beans, and bean products.

2. Since the body is weak and prone to sweating, it is advisable to replenish water in small amounts and multiple times. A large amount of water-soluble vitamins are excreted in sweat, especially vitamin C, vitamin B1, and vitamin B2. Therefore, you should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. This also helps prevent constipation.

3. On the basis of a normal diet, appropriately limit fat. Within one week after surgery, fat should be controlled at around 80 grams per day. People with menstrual disorders should avoid eating irritating foods, such as chili peppers, wine, vinegar, pepper, ginger, etc. These foods can stimulate congestion of the sexual organs and increase menstrual volume. Also avoid eating cold foods such as crabs, snails, and clams.

Some doctors recommend taking 3-5 doses of Shenghua Tang (6 qian of Angelica sinensis, 1.5 qian of Roasted Licorice Root, 4 qian of Chuanxiong, 1 qian of Peach Kernel, 1 qian of Black Ginger, and 2 qian of Eucommia ulmoides).
