How long after an abortion can I take a shower?

Artificial abortion is an effective way to terminate an unwanted pregnancy. Currently, the number of people undergoing artificial abortions increases to varying degrees each year. In fact, abortion will cause a lot of harm to the health of female friends, and there will be many taboos after abortion. At this time, it is best to pay attention to rest, and pay more attention to diet and life, and try to make the body recover quickly.

Observe the bleeding situation: Vaginal bleeding after abortion generally occurs within one week. If the bleeding lasts for more than one week and there are abnormal symptoms such as heavy bleeding, lower abdominal pain, fever, turbid and smelly leucorrhea, you should go to the hospital for follow-up examination and treatment in time. These symptoms are often manifestations of abnormal miscarriage or infection, and should be taken seriously. Go to the hospital where the miscarriage occurred for treatment at any time to prevent accidents and cause greater harm to the weak body.

Pay attention to reproductive health: If you do not follow the doctor's advice, do not pay attention to keeping the vulva clean and hygienic after abortion, or resume sexual intercourse too early, it is easy to cause greater damage to the female reproductive system. After miscarriage, the systemic and local reproductive organs' resistance to pathogenic microorganisms decreases, and infections in the uterus and even fallopian tubes are very likely to occur, which must be taken seriously. Sanitary napkins and other items used after abortion must be clean and hygienic, underwear must be washed, dried and changed frequently, and you should not take a sitz bath within half a month after the operation to prevent contaminated water from entering the vagina and causing infection. Having sexual intercourse too early after an abortion can easily lead to endometritis and pelvic inflammatory disease, which can easily lead to secondary infertility.

Preventing pregnancy again: Many women think that it is safe after an abortion. Since they have already had an abortion, they might as well indulge in the urge again. They often have sex soon after the abortion, which results in pregnancy again, causing greater harm to the body. This situation is quite common in real life. Some girls have another abortion soon after, or have repeated abortions within a year, almost becoming "professionals" in abortion. It is really worrying.

When washing your hair after an abortion, it is best to use warm water to wash it quickly, and you can use a hair dryer to dry your hair in time after washing. Try not to use ice water at this time. In your daily diet, you should pay attention to the scientific and reasonable combination of nutrition, especially not eating some irritating or cold foods.
