Doctor's answer:

Hello, rest well within 2 weeks after a miscarriage. In terms of diet, avoid raw, cold, and spicy foods, and do not drink alcohol. Increase your nutrition, focusing on light and nutrient-rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, and soy products, which are high in protein, as well as fresh vegetables rich in vitamins. Pay attention to keeping the perineum clean. If vaginal bleeding has not stopped, avoid taking baths, but you can shower. Abstain from sexual activity for one month. Seek medical treatment at a reputable or Grade III-A hospital, as they have more authoritative experts and can better ensure safety.
After an artificial abortion, it is necessary to take antibiotics. After cleaning the external genitalia, you must go to the rest room for antibiotic treatment, usually through intravenous infusion or oral medication, which typically takes about an hour.
