How many days after an abortion can I wash my hair and take a shower?

Abortion can cause great harm to a woman's body. During the operation, the woman's endometrium will become thinner and the body's immune ability will be greatly reduced. At this time, good conditioning is needed, and attention should be paid to life after the operation, especially when washing your hair and taking a bath. It is best not to take a tub bath, and the hair should be blown dry in time after washing.

So, how long after an abortion can you wash your hair? According to obstetricians and gynecologists, if a woman really needs to wash her hair, she can do so two weeks after the abortion. It is best for women to use warm water and be sure to blow dry their hair promptly after washing it, avoid being stimulated by cold water and wind, prevent colds, and do not take a bath in a tub.

If women undergo painless abortion, they must remember not to wash their hair immediately after the operation, as this may cause them to catch a cold easily. At this moment, the body's immune resistance is very weak and the body is still in a state of exhaustion. If they wash their hair, germs and wind evils may take the opportunity to enter the body, causing infection and disease. If you really have to wash your hair, dry it immediately with a hair dryer after washing to avoid being blown by cold air; the temperature for washing your hair must not be too low, it is best to keep it at around 37°C; generally speaking, the hair is oilier after abortion and is prone to hair loss, so women should not use shampoos that are too irritating.

There are a few things to note when washing your hair:

1. It is best to wash your hair three to four times a week.

2. People who work outdoors for a long time and those who do mental work can increase the frequency of hair washing appropriately. In addition, they should comb their hair frequently to promote blood circulation.

3. People who have the habit of washing their hair at night should try to change this habit. Secondly, they should dry their hair after washing, or blow dry it with a hair dryer to ensure that it is clean, relaxed and healthy.

After an abortion, women will need about a week to recover. During this period, it is best to rest in bed as much as possible, especially not to engage in strenuous activities. Work that requires excessive concentration should be avoided as much as possible. In order for the body to fully recover, it takes 1 to 2 months of full conditioning.
