Patient's question:
First day after childbirth, there was more bleeding, but on the second day, there wasn't much bleeding. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this is normal. As long as you do well in post-abortion care, it's fine. It is recommended that at least 3 days of rest should be taken after an abortion, and heavy labor or strenuous exercise should be avoided in the short term. Abnormal bleeding after an abortion should be taken seriously. If there is an odor or excessive bleeding, medical attention should be sought promptly. Hygiene of the vagina after an abortion is very important; otherwise, the weakened body is prone to infection. Abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained for at least one month after an abortion, and pregnancy should be avoided for 6 to 12 months.
