Patient's question:
I am 27 years old, and I recently found out that I am pregnant, but I don't want a child right now and am considering having a painless abortion. What should I pay attention to after the abortion?Doctor's answer:
Pay attention to rest and enhance nutrition. After an abortion, you should rest in bed for 2-3 days. After that, you can get off the bed and start light exercise, gradually increasing the duration of exercise. Within the first half month after an abortion, avoid heavy physical labor and avoid contact with cold water. The uterus needs about a month to recover after an abortion. Therefore, it is important to enhance nutrition, consume sufficient protein, increase the body's resistance to diseases, and promote the early repair of injured organs. After an abortion, you should eat more protein-rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, and soy products, as well as fresh vegetables rich in vitamins, to help the body recover more slowly.
