Patient's question:
Hello, I had an abortion half a month ago, can we have sex? Can we use protection? Can we just do it once?Doctor's answer:
Hello, after a painless induced abortion, the body is relatively weak. Therefore, it is necessary to rest for half a month after the procedure and prevent catching a cold. Eat more nutritious foods, but avoid overeating and maintain a balanced diet to help the body recover as quickly as possible. Keep the external genital area clean and hygienic, washing with warm water 1-2 times a day, and change sanitary pads and toilet paper frequently. Avoid soaking in a bath for 2 weeks or until vaginal bleeding has stopped. Abstain from sexual activity for 1 month to prevent infections of the reproductive organs. If you experience fever, abdominal pain, or abnormal odors in vaginal discharge, it may indicate an infection. Seek medical attention promptly.
