Patient's question:
I am 25 weeks pregnant and have recently noticed that there is a lot of dark brown discharge from my lower body. The doctor advised me to rest more and pay attention to fetal movement. This morning while using the restroom, I noticed some bleeding. When I went to the hospital, the doctor said the baby had died in the womb and that I would need surgery.What kind of help do I need: What are the post-abortion precautions?
Doctor's answer:
1. After an abortion surgery, patients need to stay in the hospital for 3-5 days, monitoring uterine contractions and preventing excessive bleeding. Since abortion surgery causes significant physical trauma, at least two weeks of rest is required post-surgery. It is advisable to avoid prolonged sitting or standing, as well as high-intensity physical activities. Resting in bed as much as possible is recommended.
