Patient's question:
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 successful, irregular life after the surgery can worsen bleeding or leave sequelae. 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. Do not drink alcohol during this period, and do not take a bath without the doctor's permission, as bathing may sometimes cause 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 medication-induced abortion is used, it is necessary to undergo medical observation to check if the medication is effective and whether the abortion is complete.
7. Starting from the second day after the surgery, avoid excessive labor and exercise.
