How long can I not eat after a painless abortion?

Fasting is required for 6 hours before painless abortion, and liquid food can be eaten in moderation 2 hours after the operation. Fasting before the operation is to avoid vomiting and aspiration during anesthesia. After the operation, you need to start with liquid food and gradually resume normal diet.

1. The main reason for fasting before surgery is anesthesia safety. Painless abortion usually uses intravenous anesthesia. Anesthetic drugs may inhibit the throat reflex, causing gastric contents to reflux and be accidentally inhaled into the lungs, causing aspiration pneumonia. Fasting for 6 hours before surgery can reduce gastric contents and reduce anesthesia risks.

2. Liquid food can be eaten 2 hours after the operation. After the anesthetic is metabolized, the body gradually recovers. At this time, you can drink a small amount of warm water or clear soup to observe whether there is nausea, vomiting and other discomfort. If there is no abnormality, you can gradually increase the type and amount of food, such as rice soup, porridge, etc.

3. Pay attention to nutritional balance in your diet after surgery. Your body needs to recover after surgery, so it is recommended to choose foods rich in protein, vitamins and minerals, such as eggs, fish, vegetables and fruits. Avoid spicy, greasy and cold foods to avoid irritating the gastrointestinal tract.

4. Observe the body's reaction after surgery. If you experience persistent abdominal pain, fever or abnormal bleeding, you should seek medical attention immediately. Avoid strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor within 1-2 weeks after surgery, keep the vulva clean, and prevent infection.

After painless abortion, the diet should start with liquid food and gradually resume normal diet. At the same time, pay attention to nutritional balance and physical recovery. If there are any abnormalities, seek medical attention in time.
