Patient's question:
I had sexual intercourse with a male friend on November 15th (he was my second sexual partner, but we lost contact afterward). Later, I discovered I hadn't had my period, and a urine test showed pregnancy. By December 15th, there was still no ultrasound result, but the next day I started bleeding, which was said to be a natural miscarriage. I underwent a D&C procedure, and my HCG levels dropped after the surgery. Subsequent follow-up tests confirmed the exclusion of ectopic pregnancy, which put me at ease. However, since then, I've been experiencing (all-over body aches and pains). It's been almost a month now, and I've had gastrointestinal discomfort (I've always had a sensitive stomach), frequent urges to defecate, and red spots around the pores on my legs after showering.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, it is completely caused by not resting well.1. Rest well after the surgery. Generally, you should stay in bed for 3 to 5 days after the surgery. If your body temperature is normal, the bloody discharge from the vagina is minimal, and there is no abdominal pain or other discomfort, you can get up and move around, and do some light household chores appropriately.
2. Strengthen nutrition and eat more high-protein, high-vitamin foods to nourish your body. At the same time, eat more vegetables and fruits, and avoid dietary restrictions or picky eating.
3. Pay attention to personal hygiene and keep the external genital area clean. Avoid tub baths within two weeks after the surgery. It is best to take showers.
4. Do not have sexual intercourse within one month after an induced abortion.
5. You should also persist in contraception and implement contraceptive measures to avoid pregnancy again and repeated induced abortions.
