Patient's question:
I had an abortion without anesthesia on November 28th. When can I go to the hospital for a follow-up examination?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Generally, follow-up checks are required more than once a week. At the same time, actively maintain personal care. Post-abortion precautions:1. Maintain a regular lifestyle: Even if the abortion procedure is successful, irregular postoperative life can worsen bleeding or leave sequelae. You can rest in the hospital for one day after the surgery or return home. In the following days, you should continue to receive observation and treatment at the hospital and ensure adequate rest.
2. Clothing should be loose and avoid tight-fitting attire.
3. During this period, avoid alcohol and do not bathe without a doctor's permission, as bathing may sometimes lead to infection.
4. Sexual activity should only be resumed after bleeding has completely stopped 10 days to 2 weeks post-surgery.
5. To ensure maternal health, do not conceive immediately after surgery, as the uterus is damaged during the procedure, making pregnancy at this time very dangerous. Safe contraceptive measures must be taken for this reason.
6. If medication-induced abortion is used, medical observation is necessary to ensure the medication is effective and the abortion is complete.
7. From the second day after surgery, avoid excessive labor and exercise.
Pay attention to these points, and they generally will not lead to infertility or sequelae. Abortion should be avoided unless absolutely necessary, as medical evidence shows that the risk of infertility and sequelae increases with the number of abortions.
