Patient's question:
I had an abortion last week, and over the past two days, my menstrual flow has been a bit heavier. I'd like to ask, what should I do if the first menstrual period after an abortion is heavier than usual?Doctor's answer:
The second period after childbirth, with a relatively heavy flow, is normal. It is recommended to pay close attention and observe. If the period lasts for a long time and the abdominal pain is severe, it is advisable to go to the hospital for a check-up to see if there is any residue. Pay attention to hygiene, change sanitary pads frequently, and always maintain dryness and cleanliness. In terms of diet, avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods, and do not drink cold beverages. Pay attention to preventing abdominal coldness and first observe carefully.
