What should be paid attention to after an abortion without pain?

Patient's question:

What should be noted after an abortion without pain?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, after an abortion without pain, you should pay attention to the following:
Maintain a regular lifestyle: Even if the abortion procedure is very successful, if your life after the surgery is not regular, it may worsen bleeding or leave behind sequelae. You can rest in the hospital for one day after the surgery or go home. In the following days, you should still go to the hospital for observation and treatment and ensure adequate rest.
2. Clothing should be loose and avoid tight-fitting clothes.
3. During this period, do not drink alcohol, and do not take a bath without the doctor's permission, as bathing may sometimes cause infection.
4. You can resume sexual activity only after bleeding has completely stopped 10 days to 2 weeks after the surgery.
5. To ensure the health of the mother, do not get pregnant immediately after the surgery, as the uterus is damaged during the procedure, and pregnancy at this time is very dangerous. Safe contraceptive measures must be taken for this reason.
6. If you use medication for an abortion, you must undergo medical observation to check if the medication is effective and whether the abortion is complete.
7. Starting from the second day after the surgery, avoid overexertion and excessive exercise.
