After an unintended pregnancy, how long does it take to have sex after medication abortion?

Patient's question:

After an unintended pregnancy, if you have a medication abortion, how long do you need to wait before having sex?

Doctor's answer:

After an abortion, it is essential to rest for 2 weeks and increase nutrition. Do not have sexual intercourse within one month to avoid causing vaginal inflammation. Usually, menstruation will return to normal after about a month, depending on the individual's constitution. Additionally, as soon as sexual activity resumes, proper contraception measures must be taken to prevent pregnancy again. In fact, under normal circumstances, any method of abortion can cause certain harm to the pregnant woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. Post-abortion patients should focus on self-care, such as maintaining a balanced diet and avoiding cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
