Do you need to stay in the hospital after an abortion?

Patient's question:

I want to know if I can go home after a miscarriage and rest there, and what I need to pay attention to after the surgery, and how long I need to rest.

Doctor's answer:

After the induced abortion, pay attention to rest and enhance nutrition; monitor the uterine contraction condition, the amount of bleeding, fever, and other symptoms. If any abnormalities are found, seek medical attention promptly. Based on the circumstances of the induced abortion, use uterine contraction medication and antibiotics as appropriate to promote uterine involution, reduce bleeding, and prevent infection. If excessive bleeding or infection is detected, active treatment should be initiated. Strictly avoid external genital hygiene and sexual activity for one month. Generally, after one month of rest, if no abnormalities are observed, work can be resumed. A follow-up examination is recommended after one month.
