What to pay attention to when changing a tire and sitting the month after giving birth

Patient's question:

Flat tire, what should I pay attention to during postpartum period, can I go out to play?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, after an abortion, the cervix has not yet fully closed, and the endometrium also has a healing process. During this period, it is important to pay special attention to maintaining cleanliness and hygiene of the external genitalia. Sanitary napkins and other supplies, as well as underwear, should be washed and changed frequently. Avoid soaking in a bath within the first half month after the surgery to prevent dirty water from entering the vagina, which may cause infection. If sexual intercourse occurs too early after an abortion, it may lead to acute endometritis, pelvic inflammation, or even secondary infertility. Therefore, sexual activity is strictly prohibited within the first month after an abortion.
