Patient's question:
What should be paid attention to after a miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Hello, after a miscarriage, you should pay attention to the following aspects:1. Rest in bed for 2 to 3 days, then gradually increase your activity time. Avoid strenuous physical labor and exercise for the first half month.
2. In terms of diet, avoid cold, spicy, and raw foods, and do not drink alcohol. Focus on nutritious and light meals, such as fish, meat, eggs, and protein-rich foods like bean products, as well as fresh vegetables rich in vitamins.
3. Do not have sexual intercourse for the first month to avoid infection. Once sexual activity resumes, use contraception to prevent pregnancy again. Wait at least six months before trying to conceive.
4. Pay attention to hygiene to prevent gynecological infections. Shower instead of bathing. If inflammation occurs, take oral medication such as metronidazole, levofloxacin, or amoxicillin. For abdominal pain, take antibiotics and motherwort decoction.
5. For health care, keep warm and avoid spicy foods. Avoid soaking in a bath for the first 7 days to prevent infection.
6. In the first 2 to 3 days after a miscarriage, vaginal bleeding is usually equivalent to or slightly more than menstrual bleeding, and should not exceed 15 days. If bleeding lasts too long, is heavier than usual menstrual bleeding, or is accompanied by severe abdominal pain, it may indicate infection or incomplete miscarriage. It is recommended to have a B examination at the hospital.
