What should be paid attention to before having an abortion?

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. I had sex again yesterday and am afraid of getting pregnant again. What should I pay attention to before having an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, one week before surgery, sexual activity should be avoided. The night before surgery, you can wash your hair and take a bath. Four hours before surgery, you should refrain from drinking and eating. Patients with colds or fever are not allowed to have an abortion. Do not be overly anxious and maintain sufficient deep sleep throughout. Before the surgery, an ultrasound and blood test should also be done. In daily life, maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against colds, eat light and soft foods, keep the room well-ventilated, and drink plenty of hot water to ensure the condition does not worsen.
