How long should one rest after a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

My wife just had an abortion this afternoon. She's sleeping in bed now. She told me just now that she wants to go back to work tomorrow. Is that too rushed? Her body hasn't even recovered well. I don't know how many days of rest are needed after an abortion to fully recover.

Doctor's answer:

After an induced abortion, rest in bed for 2 to 3 days. After that, you can get out of bed and gradually increase your activity time.
Within half a month after an induced abortion, avoid heavy physical labor and contact with cold water.
The uterus needs about a month to recover after an induced abortion. Therefore, it is important to increase nutrition, consume sufficient protein, enhance the body's resistance to diseases, and promote the early repair of injured organs.
After an induced abortion, eat more fish, meat, eggs, and protein-rich soy products, as well as fresh vegetables rich in vitamins, to speed up recovery.
