Patient's question:
What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? The harm is relatively small. Can I take emergency contraception after having sex after a medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
The bleeding after medication abortion tends to last longer, usually between 7 to 10 days. After a miscarriage, it takes a certain amount of time for the reproductive system to fully recover. Engaging in sexual activity too soon can be harmful to health. As a general rule, sexual activity is strictly prohibited within one month after medication abortion. If it has only been a week since medication abortion and the vaginal bleeding has not stopped, sexual activity is absolutely not allowed. If sexual activity occurs one week after artificial abortion, since the menopausal function has not fully recovered, it is generally impossible to conceive, and there is no need to take emergency contraception.
