Does having an abortion hurt after giving birth?

Patient's question:

I already have a child and don't want another one. Recently, I found out that I'm pregnant again. Doctor, is it painful to have an abortion after giving birth?

Doctor's answer:

In cases of general unintended pregnancy, it is possible to choose an abortion. Current painless abortions are relatively safe and do not cause obvious pain symptoms, so there is no need to worry. Rest more and carefully observe. After the abortion, it is recommended to closely monitor the amount of bleeding, which is usually relatively light. However, to prevent inflammation and infection, sexual activity should not be resumed within 4 weeks, and arrangements should be made appropriately.
