Patient's question:
Can you drink tea after taking medication abortion, such as iced black tea, green tea, etc.Doctor's answer:
Do not eat cold drinks! Pay attention to keeping warm. Rest in bed for two days at the beginning. After a miscarriage, you need to rest for two weeks, maintain cleanliness and hygiene of the external genitalia, eat less spicy and irritating foods, and consume more nutritious foods to help your body recover as soon as possible. Before menstruation resumes after a miscarriage, sexual activity, sitz baths, vaginal irrigation, and medication should be avoided. This is because the cervix is relaxed, the endometrium is shedding, and the local defense ability is weakened, making it easy to cause retrograde infection, leading to conditions such as endometritis, adnexitis, and other pelvic inflammatory diseases. Severe cases may result in infertility. The amount of bleeding after a miscarriage should be less than the normal menstrual flow, the bleeding duration should be less than two weeks, and the abdominal pain should not exceed three days. If these standards are exceeded, it should be considered as possible intrauterine residual, incomplete uterine involution, or uterine cavity infection, and active medical examination should be conducted for diagnosis and symptomatic treatment.
