What should patients not eat after surgery?

Patient's question:

What should a woman not eat after an abortion? My wife recently had an abortion, and I really feel for her. I want to make something delicious for her to help her recover. But I don't know what to eat and what not to eat. Could you please ask the doctor? She loves eating durian, grilled fish, and tofu. Can she eat these?

Doctor's answer:

After an abortion, you don't need to avoid extremely cold, spicy, or irritating foods. There's no need to follow any specific dietary restrictions. It's beneficial to eat plenty of protein-rich foods to aid in your body's full recovery. After an abortion, it's essential to rest and avoid overexertion. You should not have sexual intercourse or take a bath (either sitting or standing) within the first month after the procedure to prevent intrauterine infection. Once you resume sexual activity, you must use contraception. You can only get pregnant after one year.
