Patient's question:
Recently I have been taking postpartum medicine, and the doctor said to pay attention to diet. What foods should I avoid when taking postpartum medicine?Doctor's answer:
Medication abortion is only effective for early pregnancy within 49 days. The main drugs used in medication abortion are mifepristone and misoprostol. During medication, it is not advisable to consume extremely cold or spicy foods, as this is detrimental to the medication abortion process. This is because the medication period itself can easily lead to recurrent abdominal pain. If these foods are consumed, they may exacerbate abdominal pain during medication abortion. Although medication abortion causes less harm to women's health, there is a possibility of residual tissue remaining. Post-abortion follow-up and returning to work should be prepared. If residual tissue is found, a uterine clearance procedure will be necessary.
