Female friends around me who have undergone abortion surgery have generally been exposed to it, because unexpected pregnancy is inevitable. After the abortion surgery, it is necessary to adjust for a period of time before getting pregnant again. Some friends may be anxious to have a healthy baby and are eager to prepare for pregnancy. So, can they prepare for pregnancy after three months of abortion? Let's learn about this together.
Can I conceive after 3 months of abortion
After more than three months of abortion surgery, it is basically possible to prepare for pregnancy. At this time, the uterus has basically returned to normal and the embryo can be retained. During early pregnancy, it is important to rest and avoid fatigue and staying up late. Sexual activity is prohibited for three months, and low-dose folic acid tablets can be taken orally to prevent fetal neural tube defects. At the same time, follow medical advice to check on time and understand the development of the embryo in a timely manner.
What are the precautions after an abortion
1. Pay attention to rest and strengthen nutrition. After abortion, patients should rest in bed for 2-3 days, and then get out of bed to gradually increase their activity time. Do not engage in heavy physical labor or cold water labor within half a month after the abortion to avoid exposure to cold. Pay attention to increasing nutrition, eat more protein rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, legumes, and fresh vegetables rich in vitamins to promote the repair of the endometrium.
2. Keep the external genitalia clean and strictly prohibit sexual intercourse. After an abortion, the cervix is not completely closed and the endometrium undergoes a process of repair. During this period, special attention should be paid to maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of the external genitalia. The sanitary pads and underwear used should be washed and changed frequently, and sitz baths should be avoided within half a month after the operation to prevent dirty water from entering the vagina and causing infection. Early sexual intercourse after abortion can easily cause acute endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and secondary infertility. Therefore, sexual activity is strictly prohibited within one month after the abortion procedure.
3. Observe the bleeding situation. If there is vaginal bleeding for more than a week after an abortion, and even accompanied by lower abdominal pain, fever, cloudy and foul smelling vaginal discharge, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly.
4. Persist in practicing contraception. After the abortion procedure, the ovarian and uterine functions gradually recover, and the ovaries ovulate on schedule. If contraception is not maintained, pregnancy will quickly return. Therefore, after the abortion procedure, reliable contraceptive measures should be selected early, and contraception must be the main method. Abortion surgery should not be used as a contraceptive measure.
The above is an introduction about how long it takes to prepare for pregnancy after an abortion. In fact, the longer it takes after the abortion surgery, the better the body will recover. Therefore, preparing for pregnancy should not be rushed. Sometimes being anxious can have the opposite effect. Only when the body truly recovers can the fetus be healthier. Therefore, we should not be anxious, but take good care of our body and take good care of it.
