How long after childbirth can one get pregnant?

Patient's question:

How long after a miscarriage can one get pregnant? I didn't take precautions with my ex-boyfriend for several months, and ended up getting pregnant unexpectedly. Then I had a miscarriage. Now I want to have a child with my current boyfriend, and I want to know how long it will take to get pregnant. Will it have an impact?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, after an abortion, there should be a minimum interval of six months to allow the uterus to rest. Usually, a full recovery is achieved, and it will not cause any adverse effects. It has basically no impact on pregnancy. Therefore, it is essential to decide on appropriate contraception measures or use condoms during the first six months. Three months before trying to conceive, avoid excessive consumption of spicy and stimulating foods, alcohol, smoking, and taking harmful medications. All these aspects need to be taken into consideration.
