Patient's question:
Doctor, I recently had sex with my boyfriend because it was the safe period and I didn't take any contraceptive measures. My period has been delayed for the past month, and I've been experiencing nausea. The hospital conducted a thorough examination and said I was pregnant, so I had an abortion. I want to ask, what are the normal symptoms after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
After an induced abortion, if there are no abnormal symptoms such as abdominal pain or increased leukorrhea, it should be normal. After an induced abortion, it is essential to rest and avoid overexertion. For the first month after the procedure, sexual activity must be strictly prohibited. Once fully recovered, if sexual activity is resumed, it is important to use contraception to prevent another unwanted pregnancy, which could cause further harm to your health. Condoms can be used for breastfeeding. After an induced abortion, it is advisable to enhance nutrition and avoid heavy physical labor. Sexual activity is not allowed until the postpartum period is over.
