What should women pay attention to after curettage?

After a woman has undergone a curettage, she must pay attention to the following: first, she must do the relevant nursing work, ensure that her life is regular, get enough rest, and be observed; second, she must pay attention to personal hygiene and refrain from sexual intercourse; finally, she must also take contraceptive measures and must not get pregnant at this time!

In real life, some women have to undergo artificial abortion after an unexpected pregnancy. Sometimes, it is inevitable that the abortion will not be clean, and they need to undergo curettage. This is a very critical time for women. So, what should women pay attention to after curettage? Let's find out below!
1. Do a good job of nursing <br/>Even if the abortion operation is successful, if the life after the curettage is not regular, it will increase bleeding or leave sequelae. You can rest in the hospital for a day after the operation, or go home. You need to go to the hospital for observation and treatment in the following days, and ensure adequate rest. Clothing should be kept loose, not too tight.
During this time, do not drink alcohol and do not bathe without your doctor's permission, as bathing can sometimes cause infection.
2. Pay attention to personal hygiene . After the curettage, you should pay special attention to hygiene, change your underwear frequently, clean your vulva every day, and change them frequently. Sexual intercourse is prohibited within 4 weeks.
3. Do a good job of contraception . To ensure the health of the mother, do not get pregnant immediately after the operation. Because the uterus is damaged during the operation, pregnancy at this time is very dangerous. Therefore, safe contraceptive measures must be taken.
It should be noted that, generally speaking, women need to return to the hospital for a follow-up examination one month after undergoing a curettage. During this period, if women experience excessive bleeding or wound infection, they must seek treatment as soon as possible, otherwise serious consequences will occur. In addition, it is very important for women to maintain personal hygiene within one month after the induced abortion surgery, and they must pay attention to the hygiene of the vulva. If necessary, it is necessary to use some uterine contraction drugs and antibiotics for treatment as appropriate according to the course of the induced abortion, so as to promote uterine involution, thereby reducing the adverse symptoms of bleeding and preventing the occurrence of infection. At this time, you must pay attention to the contraction of the uterus and the amount of bleeding, in addition, whether there is a fever, etc.
