What is the reason for the enlarged lower abdomen after painless abortion?

Patient's question:

After the painless abortion, I've noticed that my lower abdomen has become larger than before recently. What could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

After an abortion without pain, if the lower abdomen becomes larger, it is likely due to the body not fully recovering. It is recommended to rest actively and pay attention to local hygiene. It is advisable to take a longer rest period to allow the body to fully recover to normal. It is also recommended to check the condition of your diet and deep sleep.
The bleeding after an artificial abortion is generally more than the uterine bleeding, and the bleeding usually stops within 10 days after the surgery. In general, the lower abdomen should not become larger after an abortion, so there is no correlation between the two. It is more likely that your abdomen is larger due to overeating.
Please avoid cold and raw foods, drink light beverages, and eat less greasy food. Wishing you good health!
Avoid sexual activity too soon.
