Patient's question:
I had an abortion without anesthesia yesterday, and there was a little bleeding after the surgery. There hasn't been any bleeding today. Is this normal? When will my next period come? Before the surgery, I had a slight esophagitis and mild cervical erosion. How should I take care of myself after the surgery?Doctor's answer:
Hello, after an induced abortion, due to individual differences, vaginal bleeding may not occur, but symptoms such as abdominal pain and abnormal vaginal discharge should be checked at the hospital as soon as possible. An induced abortion can cause the endometrium to thin, and multiple procedures can lead to severe conditions such as infertility.Advice: It is recommended to rest in bed for 2-3 days after an induced abortion, gradually increasing activity time to reduce the risk of uterine hematoma. Within half a month after the procedure, avoid heavy physical labor and cold-water activities, and avoid exposure to cold. Pay attention to increasing nutrition, consuming more protein-rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, and soy products, as well as fresh vegetables rich in vitamins, to promote the early repair of the damaged endometrium. Maintain external genital hygiene, and avoid sexual intercourse and tub baths for one month. Adhere to effective contraception.
