Can I take a shower and wash my hair after a painless abortion today?

Patient's question:

Can I take a shower and wash my hair after a painless abortion today? Can I clean my external genitalia?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Within one month after the surgery, sexual activity and tub baths are prohibited. Antibiotics should be taken for one week post-surgery to prevent infection. A follow-up visit to the hospital is required between weeks 2 and 4. If possible, rest for one to two weeks, avoid strenuous exercise, and stay warm.
Guidelines:
Eat more nutritious and easily digestible foods, such as chicken soup, fish soup, and pork rib soup, while avoiding spicy and foods.
