Patient's question:
I recently had a miscarriage due to fetal issues and then did a small postpartum recovery at home. It has been a month now, and I want to know how long after a miscarriage can I have a gynecological examination?Doctor's answer:
The patient may feel weak after an induced abortion and should avoid cold and hot foods. It is recommended to consume more nourishing foods such as bone soup, fish soup, and nutritious porridge to replenish qi and blood, enhance physical fitness, and prevent colds.Within the first month after the procedure, the patient may experience repeated discharge of lochia. Therefore, sexual intercourse should be avoided to prevent gynecological inflammation. Typically, a follow-up examination at the hospital can be scheduled one month after the abortion or 3 to 7 days after the menstrual period to assess the recovery of the uterus.
