The so-called ectopic pregnancy refers to the implantation and development of a fertilized egg in a location outside the uterine cavity, known as an ectopic pregnancy, characterized by symptoms such as abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, and amenorrhea. Ectopic pregnancy belongs to abnormal pregnancy. If diagnosed, measures should be taken early to undergo surgery. So, should I have a postpartum confinement after ectopic pregnancy surgery?
Although ectopic pregnancy is not like childbirth, it still consumes a lot of energy for women, and after surgery, their bodies will be very weak. So after undergoing ectopic pregnancy surgery, it is best to adjust your body like during confinement. After your body recovers, you can do housework and work. It is best to rest for more than half a month.
Women who have just undergone ectopic pregnancy surgery must pay attention. Within the first two weeks after the surgery, they must rest, avoid staying up late, and avoid heavy physical activity. In terms of diet, they can eat more energy boosting and nutritious foods. Try to eat less spicy and stimulating foods, and avoid being too cold. Avoid eating foods such as ice drinks, crabs, mung beans, barbecue, etc., as the body is weak and it is not advisable to be too cold.
It is best to abstain from sexual activity within one month after surgery to avoid bacterial invasion, cross infection, and inflammation. At the same time, attention should be paid to the cleanliness of the external genitalia, which can be washed with warm water about twice a day. After ectopic pregnancy surgery, if you still want to conceive, it is best to wait for one year before preparing for pregnancy.
