Patient's question:
Medical Description: I want to know, after an abortion, will I get pregnant if I have sex? Do I need to take any contraceptive measures? Medical History and Effectiveness: About a week after the abortion. Desired Help: I want to know if I will get pregnant and what precautions I should take in the future.Doctor's answer:
If you did not take effective contraceptive measures after an induced abortion, there is still a possibility of pregnancy. Generally, a woman's uterus takes about a month to recover after an induced abortion, which means sexual intercourse should not occur within 30 days after the procedure, otherwise it may lead to gynecological diseases or even infertility. If sexual intercourse occurs shortly after the surgery, it may increase the risk of infection, causing conditions such as endometritis or tubo-ovarian abscess, and may even lead to infertility. It is recommended that you rest well, keep your waist and abdomen warm, and visit a regular hospital for a check-up if your period is delayed by more than a week.
