Can you walk immediately after an abortion?

Patient's question:

During a gathering, I had a sexual relationship with someone again. Recently, I found out I'm pregnant. As a student, I don't dare tell my family about this, and I'm also afraid to tell the people around you. I remembered about an abortion, and I'm afraid to delay it for too long. Can I walk immediately after having an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

After an abortion, you can walk appropriately, and the impact isn't significant at this time. The key is to avoid strenuous exercise after the abortion procedure. Since medication-induced abortion can cause significant damage to the endometrium, intense exercise during this period may lead to abdominal pain or endometrial ectopic symptoms. Therefore, taking a gentle walk is not harmful.
