Is it okay to have sex after medication abortion?

Patient's question:

My husband didn't know I was pregnant, so I secretly bought medicine to have an abortion. After the child was aborted, that night, my husband and I had sex. What are the dangers to the body after taking medication for an abortion? Do I need to take good care of my body after taking the medicine? What will happen if I don't take care of my body?

Doctor's answer:

After taking medication for an abortion, it is essential to visit a regular hospital to ensure a clean miscarriage. Additionally, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited within one month after the procedure. Engaging in sexual activity too soon may lead to infections. It is important to enhance nutrition, avoid cold drinks, pay attention to preventing colds, and not expose oneself to cold. Avoid spicy and extremely cold foods. Rest more, do not overwork, maintain a regular schedule, relax your mind, and always keep personal hygiene. Change your clothes and underwear frequently to prevent recurring gynecological diseases.
