Patient's question:
I am 26 years old. The last time I had sex with my boyfriend, we didn't use protection, and now I am pregnant. However, I don't want this child and plan to have an abortion. Could you please tell me what the symptoms of infection after an abortion are?Doctor's answer:
After surgery, it is strictly forbidden to have sexual activity for half a month. Premature sexual activity may lead to a recurrence of transmission and may cause symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, skin breakdown, fever, abnormal discharge with a bad odor, vulvar itching, abnormal leukorrhea, cervicitis, cervical erosion, endometritis, and pelvic inflammation. It is recommended that if you experience discomfort again, you should go to the hospital for a detailed examination and timely treatment. During the treatment period, patients should follow a balanced diet, maintain a regular schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to a weakened immune system.
