Principles of dietary supplementation after artificial abortion

Artificial abortion itself is very harmful to the body. If you do not pay attention to dietary care after the operation, I am afraid there will be more postoperative sequelae. In order to enable patients to recover their health as soon as possible and avoid the occurrence of some postoperative sequelae, we will introduce the principles of dietary nourishment after artificial abortion.

First of all, we must ensure the supply of high-quality protein, sufficient vitamins and inorganic salts, especially sufficient iron to prevent anemia. Food selection should be nutritious and easy to digest and absorb. Fresh fish, tender chicken, eggs, animal liver, animal blood, lean meat, soy products, milk, jujube, lotus seeds, fresh fruits and vegetables can be provided. Do not eat or eat less greasy raw and cold food, and do not eat radish, hawthorn, bitter melon, orange and other foods that have the properties of regulating qi, promoting blood circulation and cooling. Eat more easily digestible foods. The time for nourishing is preferably half a month. For those who are usually weak, have poor physical condition, and lose a lot of blood, the time for nourishing can be appropriately extended.

Dietary principles after artificial abortion After artificial abortion, it is still necessary to make reasonable arrangements for the quantity, quality and combination of various foods to meet the body's needs for protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, inorganic salts, water and cellulose. In order to promote recovery after artificial abortion, dietary adjustments should focus on the following points:

(1) Protein is an important component of antibodies. If it is not taken in enough, the body's resistance will be reduced. Within half a month after artificial abortion, protein should be given at 1.5 to 2 grams per kilogram of body weight, and the daily amount is about 100 to 150 grams. Therefore, you can eat more chicken, lean pork, eggs, milk, beans, bean products, etc.

(2) After an artificial abortion, the body is weak and prone to sweating. Therefore, water should be replenished in small amounts and multiple times to reduce water evaporation; sweat excretes a large amount of water-soluble vitamins, especially vitamin C, vitamin B1, and vitamin B2. Therefore, you should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. This is also helpful to prevent constipation.

(3) On the basis of a normal diet, appropriate fat restriction should be applied. Fat intake should be controlled at about 80 grams per day within one week after surgery. People with menstrual disorders should avoid eating irritating foods, such as chili peppers, wine, vinegar, pepper, ginger, etc. These foods can stimulate congestion of the sexual organs and increase menstrual volume. Cold foods such as crabs, snails, and river clams should also be avoided.

2. Dietary Recipe for Post-abortion Treatment (1) Egg and Date Soup. 2 eggs, 10 red dates, and an appropriate amount of brown sugar. Boil water in a pot, then add the eggs and cook. Add the red dates and brown sugar and simmer for 20 minutes. It has the effects of replenishing qi and nourishing blood. It is suitable for the treatment of anemia and insufficient qi and blood after illness and childbirth.

After an artificial abortion, attention should be paid to dietary supplementation, which has a great impact on women's health. Because abortion causes certain damage to the body, a certain amount of blood is lost, and the psychological pressure and physical pain during the abortion process make the body weaker after the abortion, and some people may even have anemia. Therefore, proper supplementation is absolutely necessary, and the degree and duration of supplementation should be determined by the physical condition of the aborted person and the amount of blood loss.
