Patient's question:
I am 25 years old. Previously, I had sex without protection, which resulted in pregnancy and a miscarriage. Now, I have abdominal pain and am not recovering well. Yesterday, I had sex again and am afraid of getting pregnant again. What are the post-abortion precautions?Doctor's answer:
The surgical procedure for induced abortion causes severe harm to women. After the surgery, patients should rest in bed for 2 to 3 days. Avoid heavy physical labor and enhance nutrition. Maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia. For the first half month after the surgery, bathing in a tub is strictly prohibited. For the first month, sexual activity is strictly forbidden. If there is bleeding for more than one week after the induced abortion, promptly visit a hospital for a postpartum check-up. Breastfeeding training should be provided. Under no circumstances should induced abortion be used as a method for breastfeeding.During the treatment period, patients should follow a balanced diet, maintain a regular sleep schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, and regulate their physical and mental health. Maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
