How long after medication abortion can sexual intercourse be resumed?

Patient's question:

I found out a few days ago that I'm pregnant. After a thorough check-up at the hospital, I was given medication for medication abortion. After taking the medication, I had a few days of bleeding similar to my period, with stomach pain. Now the bleeding has stopped, and I'm planning to have another ultrasound to see how things are going. My husband wants to have sex, and I'm wondering how long after medication abortion it's safe to resume sexual activity?

Doctor's answer:

After taking medication for an abortion, you can resume sexual activity one month later. During this month, be careful not to catch a cold. After the miscarriage, it is necessary to have an immediate ultrasound examination of the uterus to check for any remaining placental tissue. Under the guidance of a doctor, take two types of oral antibiotics to implement anti-inflammatory treatment to prevent secondary inflammation. In terms of diet, enhance nutrition and eat more foods that replenish qi and nourish blood to help stabilize your constitution. Avoid staying up late and engaging in strenuous activities.
