Patient's question:
But in our unit, the maternity leave is only one week. Moreover, some of my friends around me went back to work three days after the miscarriage, and now they haven't noticed anything. Is it really necessary to take postpartum care like doing a confinement after a miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Miscarriage, also known as a "small postpartum period," requires the same care as giving birth. If it's not properly managed, it can have an impact on future health. Especially in the first three days, it's essential to rest in bed and avoid cold exposure for half a month. If you go to a regular hospital, the doctor will guide you. Your body is your own, even if it's not, if you don't take care of it now, the suffering later will be endured by yourself.
