What should I pay attention to when having an abortion in summer?

Abortion is miscarriage. When an unexpected pregnancy occurs, many people will use abortion to terminate the pregnancy. Abortion is generally divided into two methods: medical abortion and surgical abortion, and different abortion methods have different characteristics. The weather is quite hot in summer, and any type of abortion will cause certain harm to women's bodies, so some details must be paid attention to. So, what should you pay attention to when having an abortion in summer? Let’s take a look below.

1. You should rest well for about four weeks after having an abortion in the summer, and try to avoid physical labor and physical exercise within half a month. The most direct impact is that it is not conducive to the recovery of the uterus, and it is easy to cause heavy bleeding and vaginal inflammation. In severe cases, it will make it difficult to get pregnant in the future, and it will indirectly have adverse effects on all aspects of human health.

2. After a miscarriage in summer, you should avoid cold drinks, do not turn on the air conditioner for a long time, eat a light and nutritious diet, and do not eat raw or cold food and drinks. Take it out of the refrigerator and let it reach room temperature for a while before eating.

3. Do not eat stimulating foods like chili peppers and raw garlic, but you can eat fruits, drink more milk, and make some nutritious soups, such as crucian carp soup and pig's trotter soup to enhance immunity. Pigeon soup and blackfish soup are beneficial for wound healing. Pork liver soup, red dates and longan soup, and brown sugar water can replenish blood. Pay attention to iron supplementation and ensure adequate protein intake.

4. Pay close attention to the bleeding. If vaginal bleeding lasts for more than one week after abortion, or is even accompanied by lower abdominal pain, fever, turbid and smelly leucorrhea, and other abnormal symptoms, you should go to the hospital for follow-up examination and treatment in time.

5. Sexual intercourse must be abstained from within one month, because during sexual intercourse, bacteria hidden in the male foreskin and bacteria in the female vulva, vagina, and cervix can take the opportunity to ascend and infect the uterine cavity; at the same time, the blood sinuses are open after the embryonic tissue is peeled off, making them easy to be infected by bacteria.

6. Carry out daily cleaning and care. Do not wash the basin, do vaginal douching, or swim within one month after the abortion. Sanitary napkins should be changed frequently; do not wear underwear made of chemical fiber fabrics; change and wash underwear every day.

7. Be sure to take medication to recover your body. If vaginal bleeding lasts more than 7 days, you should take antibiotics under the guidance of a doctor to prevent infection. If bleeding continues for more than two weeks, you should go to the hospital to find out the cause and undergo a uterine curettage if necessary.
