Patient's question:
I accidentally got pregnant with my boyfriend earlier, and I'm currently undergoing medication-induced abortion. Can I exercise during the medication period?Doctor's answer:
It is not recommended to have sexual intercourse during medication-induced abortion to avoid heavy bleeding. Pay close attention to hygiene, use warm water to rinse the external genitalia, and ensure underwear is thoroughly exposed to sunlight for sterilization. Avoid consuming excessive spicy and greasy foods. After the miscarriage, you can have an immediate post-abortion ultrasound to check for any residual tissue in the uterine cavity. If necessary, a uterine curettage may be required. Generally, bleeding after abortion subsides within about a week. If the bleeding lasts longer, it is advisable to visit the hospital for a follow-up examination.
