What should you pay attention to after miscarriage

Miscarriage refers to the spontaneous abortion of a woman in the early stages of pregnancy due to various unexpected circumstances. Although you don't have to go through the step of giving birth after a miscarriage, you still need to take a month off to ensure your body can recover quickly. During this month, you must pay attention to proper rest, strengthen nutrition, adjust your mentality, and also take good care of your body.

1. Get adequate rest and strengthen nutrition, especially iron intake

After a miscarriage, do not engage in physical labor within half a month, do not fatigue yourself, and do not touch cold water. Increase nutritional intake, such as protein and iron. Consuming more protein can supplement the body's nutrition and enhance the body's defense against disease.

Iron intake is necessary because after miscarriage, a large amount of blood is lost, and iron is also lost, which can easily cause iron deficiency or iron-deficiency anemia. Iron-deficiency anemia will further endanger the body's immunity and nervous system, such as low immunity, susceptibility to infection, inattention, palpitations, insomnia and so on. Therefore, iron supplementation after miscarriage is urgent.

Because red meat is a good iron supplement, you can use red dates to stew pork, stir-fry beef, etc. Female friends who don’t like meat can try taking purified heme iron, such as Lixuekang.

2. Adjust your mindset

Regardless of the cause of miscarriage, women generally do not feel relieved after the miscarriage. Therefore, after a miscarriage, one should adjust one's mentality in time, and family members should pay attention to their diet, daily life, and take care of their mood.

At the same time, their physical condition must also be taken into consideration. Because gastric tension and peristalsis are weaker after miscarriage, you should avoid eating greasy, cold, spicy, hard and rough foods, such as chili peppers and fried foods. It is advisable to eat light foods such as steamed fish, chicken soup, pork rib soup, lean meat soup, eggs, milk, vegetables, etc.

3. Pay attention to your body care after miscarriage

Some young girls do not pay attention to their physical care after miscarriage, and do not care about various situations. Just like I mentioned earlier, they went to work the next day after miscarriage and did not pay attention to their bodies at all. That is not acceptable. After a miscarriage, you should keep your vulva clean and should not have sex with your partner.

Because the uterus has not completely closed after miscarriage, the endometrium needs a repair process. Therefore, special attention should be paid to protecting the cleanliness of the vulva to prevent bacteria from entering the body and causing infection.
