What should be paid attention to during the medication period of medication abortion?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

After a miscarriage, you should rest for at least one week.
1. In terms of diet, avoid raw, cold, and spicy foods, and do not drink alcohol. Increase your nutrition by focusing on light, nutrient-rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, and protein-rich food products like soy products, as well as fresh vegetables rich in vitamins.
2. Do not have sexual intercourse for one month to avoid infection. Afterward, take contraceptive measures to prevent suffering again. Pregnancy should wait for at least six months.
3. Pay attention to hygiene in the lower body to prevent gynecological infections. You can take a shower. If inflammation occurs, you can take oral metronidazole, levofloxacin, or cephalexin. If you have abdominal pain, you can take antibiotics and motherwort.
4. For health care, keep warm appropriately. Do not eat spicy foods. Avoid soaking in a bath for 7 days to prevent infection.
5. Vaginal bleeding usually lasts for 7–10 days, with a maximum of 15 days. If the bleeding lasts too long, the amount of bleeding is greater than your usual menstrual flow, or you experience severe abdominal pain, it may indicate infection or incomplete miscarriage. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up.
