Patient's question:
I got pregnant unexpectedly, and a few days ago I made a big decision to go to the hospital for an abortion. Now I always feel that my lower body is particularly dirty. In my house, there is only one bottle of gynecological wash that hasn't been used yet. I want to use it to clean, but I don't know if it's okay. Can I use gynecological wash after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
After an induced abortion, gynecological cleansing solution can be used. Post-abortion, it is common to experience discomfort or recurrent vulvitis. It is recommended to use gynecological cleansing solution for wiping to prevent or alleviate inflammation. However, only vulvar wiping should be performed, as vaginal wiping is not advisable. This is because irregular spotting may occur shortly after an abortion, and improper wiping can easily lead to intrauterine infection.
