How many days do you need to rest after an abortion?

After a miscarriage, a woman's body needs some time to recover, and it is usually recommended to rest for about two weeks. This period of rest is essential for a woman's body to recover, and can effectively reduce the physical damage caused by miscarriage and reduce the risk of complications.

After a miscarriage, a woman's hormone levels suddenly drop, and both the body and the mind need to adapt to this change. At the same time, miscarriage may cause vaginal bleeding and endometrial damage, which requires time to repair. Insufficient rest may affect the recovery process and even lead to adverse consequences such as prolonged bleeding time and increased risk of infection.

During the rest period, women should pay attention to the following points: ensure adequate sleep and avoid excessive fatigue; increase nutritional intake, eat more foods rich in protein and vitamins, and avoid raw, cold and spicy foods; keep the vulva clean to reduce the chance of infection; take medicine on time as prescribed by the doctor to promote uterine contraction and prevent infection.

You don't have to stay in bed after a miscarriage. Appropriate activities can help discharge blood from the uterine cavity and reduce the risk of infection. But you should avoid strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor. After two weeks, if your body recovers well, you can gradually return to normal work and life.

Rest and recovery after abortion vary according to individual constitution and the circumstances of the abortion. If there are any abnormalities after abortion, such as excessive bleeding, severe abdominal pain, etc., you should seek medical attention in time.
