What are the precautions for post-abortion care

Nowadays, many young couples have to take care of their wives because their elders at home have no time after their wives have had miscarriages. However, most young men nowadays have little life experience and know nothing about miscarriage care. Today, let's learn about what are the precautions for post-abortion care?

Speaking of the precautions for post-abortion care, we have to talk about our traditional Chinese confinement. Abortion has always been called the small confinement by the elderly. So what should we pay attention to in the care of the small confinement? Let's take a look at the following:

1. Get enough rest: After a miscarriage, the endometrium is left with wounds. If you move too early, it is likely to prolong the time of vaginal bleeding, so you must get enough rest. There is a saying among the people about recuperation after miscarriage, called "sitting in the small confinement period", which further illustrates the importance of rest for recovery. Generally speaking, you should rest for two weeks after a miscarriage, and it is best to rest in bed for the first three days. Do not engage in physical labor or physical exercise too early to prevent overwork, otherwise uterine prolapse is very likely to occur.

2. Pay attention to hygiene and ensure cleanliness inside and outside: After miscarriage, the body's resistance decreases and bacteria will take advantage of the opportunity to enter, so special attention should be paid to personal hygiene.

1. Clean the vulva. After abortion, the secretions increase and the vagina becomes a hotbed for bacterial infection and reproduction. Therefore, you should pay attention to keeping the vulva clean and hygienic, and wash it with warm water 1-2 times a day.

2. Change underwear frequently. Keep your underwear clean and sterile. Wash, dry and change your underwear frequently. Change sanitary napkins frequently to keep your vulva dry and clean.

3. Do not take a sitting bath. Because there is a lot of secretions (or blood), it is best to take a shower. Do not take a sitting bath before the bleeding is clean, so as to avoid dirty water flowing into the vagina and causing infection.

4. Stop having sex. It is best to stop having sex within one month after a miscarriage to prevent infection of the reproductive organs.

3. Strengthen contraception and do not make the same mistake again: Ovulation may occur soon after abortion, but the endometrium needs 4-5 months to fully return to normal. Therefore, during this period, do not make the same mistake again, which is very detrimental to fetal growth and future production. Both husband and wife should strengthen contraceptive measures, and can also take appropriate contraceptive methods or sterilization measures under the guidance of a doctor. Do not ignore daily contraception and frequently perform artificial abortions. If you have too many abortions, your body's immunity will decline, your energy will be distracted, and you will be very likely to suffer from various gynecological diseases, which will seriously damage your health.
