How long do I need to rest after having an abortion?

Women also need a certain period of recovery after having an abortion. Although they need to stay in confinement after giving birth, Xiaocha also needs to stay in confinement because both giving birth and abortion will cause great damage to the uterus. If you don't protect yourself well during this period, you may develop a disease that cannot be cured in your lifetime. Let’s take a look at how long you need to rest after having an abortion.

After the abortion surgery, you should pay attention to rest and strengthen your nutrition. In terms of diet, pay attention to eating more high-quality protein, such as beans and milk, and vitamin-rich foods, such as fresh vegetables and fruits, and iron-rich foods to replenish the raw materials for blood production. But you can resume your sexual life only after one month.

Although medical abortion can be performed for women who are less than 49 days pregnant, for the sake of safety and physical health, it is recommended to choose artificial abortion around 60 days of pregnancy, so as to minimize damage to the body. Although medical abortion is the most economical, there is a risk of incomplete abortion and severe damage to the body, so it is recommended that you undergo an artificial abortion using vacuum aspiration after a while, which is safer. After the abortion, be careful not to have sexual intercourse or take a bath within one month to avoid infection!

After the abortion, you should pay attention to:

1. Pay attention to proper rest after the operation, and it is best to rest in bed for the first 3 days. Because after an artificial abortion, a wound is left on the endometrium. If you move too early, it may prolong the vaginal bleeding time. Generally, you should avoid physical labor and physical exercise within half a month. ??

2. Increase nutrition appropriately, because the operation will cause a small amount of bleeding and cause certain damage to the body, so you should supplement it in time with some foods rich in protein and vitamins, such as lean meat, fresh fish, eggs, milk or soy products. ?

3. After miscarriage, the body's resistance decreases, so more attention should be paid to personal hygiene. Because of the wounds left on the endometrium, vaginal secretions increase, making it a breeding ground for bacterial infection and reproduction. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the cleanliness of the vulva, shower and clean the vulva in time, disinfect the toilet paper and change it frequently; avoid taking a bath in a tub within half a month, and change underwear frequently; and sexual intercourse is absolutely prohibited within one month to prevent bacterial infection. In addition, contraception should be further strengthened. Under the guidance of a doctor, use appropriate contraceptive methods or sterilization measures to prevent pregnancy again. You should also pay attention to vaginal discharge after the operation. Generally, there will be red or light red discharge within a week, and the amount will gradually decrease without any obvious odor. If there is still bleeding or excessive secretions after a week, especially if the secretions have a foul odor and are accompanied by symptoms such as fever and abdominal pain, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.
