Patient's question:
Just had an abortion, don't know what I can't eat. What foods should I avoid after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
Cannot eat raw or cold foods, especially for women with poor spleen and stomach function. Overly cold foods can harm the spleen and stomach, affecting digestion.Cannot eat greasy foods such as fatty meat, animal fats, etc. During the first week after surgery, fat intake should be controlled at around 80 grams per day. After a miscarriage, the stomach tension and intestinal peristalsis are weaker, which can cause indigestion. Due to complete rest after a miscarriage, high-fat foods can reduce appetite and decrease the intake of protein, carbohydrates, and vitamins, making it easier to gain weight.
Cannot eat cold foods such as crabs, river clams, and snails. After a miscarriage, food should primarily be warm and nourishing, and these foods are not conducive to recovery.
