Is it necessary to observe confinement after miscarriage?

Young people are not responsible for their own bodies, and they rely too much on current medical science. They think that after a safe operation, their bodies can recover well. In fact, in case of unexpected pregnancy, it is necessary to sit for a period of time after the operation. A normal person will need about two weeks, and those with better health will only need about a week.

Nursing measures 1.

Pay attention to hygiene and ensure cleanliness inside and outside: After miscarriage, the body's resistance decreases and bacteria will take advantage of the opportunity to enter, so special attention should be paid to personal hygiene.

1. Clean the vulva. After miscarriage, secretions increase and the vagina becomes a breeding ground for bacterial infection. Therefore, you should pay attention to keeping the vulva clean and hygienic, and wash it 1-2 times a day with warm water.

2. Change your underwear frequently. Keep your underwear clean and sterile, wash, dry and change your underwear frequently, and change your sanitary napkins frequently to keep your vulva dry and clean.

3. Sit bath is prohibited. Due to the large amount of secretions (or blood), it is best to take a shower. Do not take a sitz bath before the bleeding has stopped, so as to prevent dirty water from flowing into the vagina and causing infection.

Nursing measure 2: Get enough rest: After miscarriage, the endometrium is left with wounds. If you move too early, it is likely to prolong the duration of vaginal bleeding, so you must get enough rest. There is a folk saying about recuperation after miscarriage, called "sitting in the short confinement period", which further illustrates the importance of rest for recovery. Generally speaking, you should rest for two weeks after a miscarriage. It is best to rest in bed for the first three days. Do not engage in physical labor or physical exercise too early to prevent overwork, otherwise uterine prolapse is very likely to occur.
