Pay attention to the hygiene of the vulva after artificial abortion

After an artificial abortion, you must pay attention to the hygiene of the vulva, otherwise it is likely to cause some viral infection. So what should you do after an artificial abortion ? In response to this question, the following authoritative experts will give you a detailed answer.

There are a few things to note about artificial abortion:

1. You need to rest for 2 weeks after an artificial abortion, prevent colds and eat more nutritious food to restore your body to normal as soon as possible.

2. For a period of time after artificial abortion, the wound on the endometrium has not yet recovered, the cervical opening is relaxed, the original mucus plug in the cervix (which has the function of preventing bacteria from entering the uterine cavity) has been removed, and the new mucus plug has not yet formed. If you do not pay attention to the hygiene of the vulva at this time, the bacteria in the vagina can easily enter the uterine cavity and cause infection. Therefore, after artificial abortion, you should keep the vulva clean and hygienic, wash it with warm water 1-2 times a day, and change the menstrual pad and straw paper frequently. Do not take a sitz bath within 2 weeks or before the vaginal bleeding is clean, and prohibit sexual intercourse within 1 month to prevent genital infection. If you have fever, abdominal pain or abnormal odor of vaginal discharge, it may be caused by infection, and you should seek medical attention in time.

3. After the placenta is detached during artificial abortion, there may be a small amount of bleeding on the wound surface left on the uterine wall. In this case, as the uterus contracts and the wound surface heals, vaginal bleeding generally stops gradually in 3-5 days, and does not exceed 10-15 days at most. If the amount of vaginal bleeding exceeds the amount of menstrual blood and lasts too long, you need to seek medical treatment in time.

4. After an artificial abortion, the ovaries will resume ovulation in about one month, and then menstruation will come. Therefore, as long as you resume your sexual life after an artificial abortion, you must take contraceptive measures to avoid getting pregnant again.
