How do you know your uterus is recovering after a miscarriage?

The biggest damage after abortion is the uterus, which is related to fertility, so many women are most concerned about the recovery of the uterus after abortion surgery. You should know that although painless abortion can minimize trauma, physical and mental damage to women is still inevitable, so how do you know whether the uterus has recovered well after abortion?

Normally, vaginal bleeding will stop about a week after a miscarriage. At this time, if there is no lower abdominal pain and abnormal vaginal discharge, the uterus has basically returned to normal. Generally speaking, the normal physiological recovery period after a miscarriage is half a month, and the ovaries will also resume ovulation function in about 20 days. If you have menstruation around 30 days, it means that the uterus has recovered well. At this time, you can go to the hospital for a B-ultrasound examination to confirm.

However, if there is still vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain more than one week after the abortion, it is likely that the abortion is incomplete or the uterus is not recovering. Then you must go to the hospital for a check-up to see if there is any residue in the uterine cavity or incomplete recovery of the uterus. Then, you should receive treatment based on the actual situation to best restore the uterus.

After the abortion, in order to restore the uterus as soon as possible, do not have sex within one month to avoid pathogen invasion and infection. It is best to rest in bed in the first half of the month, and the diet should also be nutritious. It is best to go to the hospital for a B-ultrasound examination two weeks after the abortion to confirm the recovery of the uterus. In the second half of the month, you can have appropriate activities, but you cannot do strenuous exercise, stay up late, or mainly rest.

Generally speaking, vaginal bleeding stops about a week after abortion, there is no lower abdominal pain, and there is no vaginal discharge, so the uterus basically returns to normal. But if there is still vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain after a week, it is likely caused by incomplete abortion or uterine involution. At this time, we must go to the hospital for relevant examinations and treatment.
