Patient's question:
Because I haven't prepared to have a baby for now, and also didn't take proper precautions with my husband, I accidentally got pregnant. Today I had an abortion. It's summer now, and the temperature is almost around 40 degrees Celsius, it's really unbearably hot. Can you tell me if it's okay to use a fan after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
After childbirth, it is not advisable to directly blow a fan. The fan can be directed towards a wall, but it should not be pointed directly at people. During this period, it is essential to pay attention to preventing cold exposure to avoid the invasion of cold pathogens, which may lead to joint pain, stomach pain, or other discomforts. Avoid consuming excessive cold foods. For at least one month after giving birth, refrain from sexual intercourse to prevent inflammation. Instead, focus on eating foods that replenish qi and nourish blood.
