What are the symptoms of uterine infection after abortion?

Symptoms of intrauterine infection after abortion? The normal situation after artificial abortion is: a small amount of vaginal bleeding, the color may be bright red, dark brown, or light pink, light brown, generally without blood clots, and the bleeding will stop within 2 weeks. There may be slight lower abdominal pain on the day of surgery, which will disappear later or may occasionally occur. If the patient has obvious abdominal pain after surgery, it is an abnormal situation and may be caused by the following reasons:

Because if you have sex without good preparation for a child and good contraceptive measures, you will get pregnant. If you don't want to have a child, you have to solve it through abortion. You should know that abortion is very harmful to women's health. If there is infection, then women should be given contraceptives. What should I do if the uterine cavity is infected after abortion?

First of all, after abortion, if menstruation does not come, you cannot have sexual intercourse during this period to avoid genital infection, which will cause great harm and impact on the body.

Secondly, when taking a bath, do not use the sitting bath method, you can use a shower to avoid infection, and do not use drugs to clean the genitals. After abortion, the cervix is ​​loose, the endometrium is shed, and the defense ability is reduced. If you take medicine randomly, it is easy to form an infection, which is not conducive to recovery.

Finally, pay attention to your diet. During this period, do not eat food that is too spicy, too hot, or too cold. Eat light food with adequate nutrition. You can eat some fruits and vegetables. Pay attention to the balance and rationalization of the three meals. This will help your health.

Speaking of abortion has become a nightmare for many women. In order to avoid it, we need to do a good job of contraception. If contraception fails, we need to do a good job of post-abortion care. In order to avoid serious infection and cause more terrible consequences, we should pay attention to all aspects of life to achieve a healing effect.

(1) Incomplete abortion:

Artificial abortions sometimes fail. Incomplete abortion means that the villi and decidual tissues in the uterine cavity were not completely removed during the operation. After the operation, the uterus undergoes paroxysmal contractions in order to expel the remaining embryonic tissue out of the uterus. At this time, the patient has paroxysmal abdominal pain, which is unbearable during the attack, and there is an increase in vaginal bleeding, which is bright red and has large blood clots. The abdominal pain is relieved after the blood clots are discharged, and this recurrence occurs repeatedly. In the case of incomplete abortion, a curettage is generally required to scrape out the residual embryonic tissue in the uterine cavity, and the abdominal pain disappears naturally. Anti-inflammatory treatment is strengthened after the operation to prevent infection.

(2) Postoperative infection:

This is one of the most common short-term complications of artificial abortion. Postoperative infection often occurs within two weeks after surgery. It can be caused directly by the surgical operation or by the patient's lack of attention to hygiene after surgery, such as sexual intercourse, swimming, etc. It usually leads to acute pelvic inflammatory disease, with severe abdominal pain that is persistent and can worsen in paroxysmal forms, accompanied by fever and chills, vaginal bleeding, bright red in color, fishy odor, or with yellow secretions. During physical examination, the abdominal pain refuses to be pressed, and there is tenderness and rebound pain; gynecological examination shows cervical lifting pain, uterine body tenderness, and flaky or cord-like thickening of the bilateral appendages, with obvious tenderness. If chronic pelvic inflammatory disease occurs, the abdominal pain is dull, with a small amount of vaginal bleeding, odor, and yellow secretions. In the event of postoperative infection, whether it is acute or chronic, adequate antibiotics must be given for treatment. A combination of Chinese and Western medicine can also be used to ensure thorough treatment.
