How long after abortion can I take a shower?

Generally, you can take a shower 3 to 5 days after an abortion, but the specific time varies from person to person. After an abortion, the body is relatively weak, and there will be a certain amount of vaginal bleeding. If you take a shower too early, it may cause the body to catch a cold, trigger a cold and other diseases, and may also increase the risk of infection. Usually, 3 to 5 days after an abortion, the amount of vaginal bleeding will decrease significantly, and you can choose to take a shower at this time, but pay attention to the following points:

The water temperature should not be too high or too low to avoid causing physical discomfort. After an abortion, the endometrium is wounded, and a tub bath may cause sewage to enter the vagina and cause infection, so you can only choose a shower. The bathing time should not be too long to avoid excessive physical exertion. After taking a bath, dry your body in time and put on warm clothes to avoid catching a cold.

If the body recovers slowly after abortion, vaginal bleeding lasts longer, or there are abnormal conditions such as abdominal pain or fever, then the bathing time should be postponed appropriately until the body condition stabilizes. At the same time, if you have any questions about the bathing time, it is recommended to consult a doctor who will give more accurate suggestions based on your specific situation.
