Can I take a shower three days after an abortion?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

It is best to consider undergoing a conventional surgical procedure for abortion. Medical abortion can lead to incomplete miscarriage and cause severe bleeding. Painless abortion can easily result in uterine perforation. It is preferable to undergo a hysteroscopic-guided Dilation and Curettage (D&C) procedure, as it ensures no residual tissue remains post-surgery, thereby preventing severe bleeding. This is the safest method for abortion.
