How to deal with breast milk after miscarriage

Abortion is something that many women do not want to face. It also causes great harm to the female body. Some women will still have milk leakage after a miscarriage, and many women do not know what is going on. It is normal to still have breast milk after miscarriage. This is because the hormone level in a woman's body will not disappear immediately due to miscarriage. This requires a process.

What should I do if I have breast milk after a miscarriage?

1. Abortion is the termination of a woman's pregnancy .

After a woman becomes pregnant, the estrogen level in her body changes accordingly, and the level of estrogen increases dramatically. At this time, the milk ducts in the breast will continue to expand and lengthen. The corresponding alveoli in the breast begin to develop, the capillaries become congested after expansion, and milk will be secreted under the action of prolactin.

2. Even if you have a miscarriage, milk will still be secreted

In fact, this is a completely normal situation. Therefore, if a woman finds that milk is secreted from her breasts after a miscarriage, she does not need to be overly nervous.

3. Women should pay attention to taking care of their breast health .

First of all, don’t have psychological pressure and worry that there is something wrong with your breasts. Again, avoid squeezing the breasts. And because the body needs a period of conditioning and recovery after miscarriage, you should pay attention to nutrition and health care at this time. There is also a very important time, that is, you should not have sex at this time. Because women's body resistance is very weak after miscarriage, having sex at this time is not conducive to physical recovery. At the same time, you can use a warm, clean towel to wipe or clean your breasts, which is beneficial to breast health.

Precautions after abortion

1. Live a regular life

Maintain a regular living schedule, engage in appropriate exercise, and ensure you get 8 hours of sleep every day. Develop the habit of regular bowel movements every day to ensure smooth bowel movements, but avoid using laxatives.

2. Pay attention to personal hygiene

Change clothes frequently and take a bath frequently, but avoid taking tub baths or swimming. Pay special attention to genital hygiene to prevent bacterial infection. Clothes should be loose and belts should not be too tight. You should usually wear flat shoes.

3. Choose a suitable diet

Food should be easy to digest. In particular, you should choose foods rich in various vitamins and trace elements, such as various vegetables, fruits, beans, eggs, meat, etc.

4. Keep a good mood

Try to keep your mind comfortable, avoid all kinds of stimulation, and use a variety of methods to eliminate tension, boredom, and fear in order to harmonize your emotions.

5. Be careful not to have sex

Sexual intercourse is prohibited within one month after abortion. After a miscarriage, the local resistance of the uterus is low. Having sexual intercourse too early can easily bring in bacteria and cause gynecological diseases such as endometritis.

6. Have regular prenatal checkups

Women who have experienced spontaneous abortion or habitual abortion should go to the obstetrics and gynecology department for diagnosis and treatment before becoming pregnant. If there are signs of miscarriage after conception, such as vaginal bleeding, lower abdominal pain, etc., they should seek medical attention promptly.
