Patient's question:
I am 25 years old. I didn't use protection during sex before, which led to pregnancy and a miscarriage. Now I have stomach pain and am not recovering well. Yesterday I had sex again and am afraid of getting pregnant again. Is it necessary to take birth control pills one month after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
It is necessary to have a thorough examination of the degree of endometrial repair in the hospital. Generally, it takes about six months. Pay close attention to strictly prohibiting sexual activity and tub baths within one month after an abortion to avoid the recurrence of infection. Maintain a positive mindset and keep the perineum clean and hygienic. Patients should develop a regular sleep schedule, adhere to treatment, follow a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
