There are many questions, please guide me.
Doctor's answer:
One, appropriate rest: In the first three days after an abortion, you should rest in bed and avoid strenuous exercise or physical labor to prevent excessive fatigue.Two, pay attention to personal hygiene: In daily life, it is important to maintain good personal hygiene, as neglecting this can lead to infection and the occurrence of other inflammatory conditions. For one month after an abortion, sexual activity should be avoided, and you should not take a bath. During the bleeding period, change sanitary pads frequently to keep the area clean.
Three, monitor the bleeding: About one week after an abortion, the vagina may have red or light red discharge. If the bleeding lasts more than 15 days or the amount exceeds the normal menstrual flow, especially if the discharge has an odor, you should seek medical attention promptly to avoid missing the best opportunity for treatment.
Four, strengthen contraceptive measures: In daily life, take effective contraceptive measures to prevent accidental pregnancy.
Five, follow-up visit two weeks after a painless abortion: To ensure proper recovery, you should visit the hospital for a follow-up check two weeks after the procedure. If no issues are detected, you can resume normal life.
