Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Gynecology: I had an abortion under anesthesia on December 16th. Why is there always frequent vaginal bleeding? Is this normal? What should I pay attention to after an abortion? Looking forward to a quick reply!!!

Doctor's answer:

Hello, please pay attention to the following aspects:
1. Maintain a regular lifestyle: Even if the miscarriage surgery is very successful, if your life after the surgery is not regular, it may worsen bleeding or leave behind postoperative complications. You can rest in the hospital for one day after the surgery or go home. In the following days, you still need to go to the hospital for observation and treatment, and ensure adequate rest.
2. Clothing should be loose and avoid tight-fitting clothes.
3. During this period, do not drink alcohol, and do not take a bath without the doctor's permission, as bathing may sometimes lead to infection.
4. Sexual activity can only be resumed after bleeding has completely stopped 10 days to 2 weeks after the surgery.
5. To ensure the health of the mother, do not get pregnant immediately after the surgery, as the uterus is damaged during the procedure, and pregnancy at this time is very dangerous. Safe contraceptive measures must be taken for this reason.
6. If you use medication for miscarriage, you must undergo medical observation to check if the medication is effective and whether the miscarriage is complete.
7. Starting from the second day after the surgery, avoid overexertion and excessive exercise.
