How to take care of yourself after a painless abortion?

Although painless abortion causes the least harm to women's bodies, postoperative care cannot be ignored. Below, gynecological experts will give us a detailed introduction on how to take care of yourself after a painless abortion.

Experts introduce what to pay attention to after a painless abortion:

1. Vaginal bleeding usually stops gradually in 3 to 5 days, and at most does not exceed 10 to 15 days. If the vaginal bleeding exceeds menstrual flow and lasts too long, it is necessary to seek medical treatment in time.

2. Do not take a bath for 2 weeks or until the vaginal bleeding has completely stopped.

3. Within 2 weeks after the surgery, adequate bed rest should be taken, and heavy physical labor should be avoided.

4. Two weeks of rest are needed after a painless abortion, and reading newspapers or watching TV should be minimized.

5. Eat more nutritious foods to help your body recover quickly. In general, cold drinks should be avoided for 7-10 days after the surgery, and spicy foods should be avoided for one month.

6. Keep the external genitalia clean and hygienic. Wash with warm water 1-2 times a day, and change sanitary napkins frequently.

7. Avoid sexual intercourse for 1 month to prevent infection of the reproductive organs. If you have a fever, abdominal pain, or abnormal vaginal discharge, seek medical attention immediately.

8. After a painless abortion, once sexual activity resumes, contraceptive measures must be taken to avoid another pregnancy. Under normal circumstances, the uterine lining repair period is about half a year. Therefore, special attention needs to be paid to avoid another pregnancy that could cause uterine damage.

Experts remind: Painless abortion is a method with high technical requirements, so women are advised to go to regular hospitals to ensure the safety of the surgery.
