Patient's question:
I decided to have an abortion when I was one month pregnant, using the medication method. It worked really well, and I recovered quickly. But it's said that even after an abortion, you need to do a postpartum recovery period, so I was quite careful during that time. However, I still had sex with my husband. Can a girl who had an abortion and did a postpartum recovery period still have sex and have children?Doctor's answer:
Under normal circumstances, it is still not recommended to engage in sexual activity within one month after a miscarriage or surgery. For the time being, sexual activity is strictly prohibited. After a miscarriage, the cervix is still expanding, and engaging in sexual activity can easily lead to pelvic infection. Additionally, there is still a certain chance of pregnancy, so if sexual activity is unavoidable, immediate oral emergency contraception should be taken to ensure breastfeeding effectiveness. Regular follow-up is also necessary to monitor the specific bleeding from the vagina.
