When a pregnant woman experiences an unexpected miscarriage or needs to have an abortion for some unavoidable reason, she must pay attention to postpartum recovery. Because postpartum recovery is good, the harm to women's bodies will be smaller, after all, whether it is medical abortion or induced abortion, it can cause significant harm to women's bodies. So, what should women eat after abortion and recover quickly?
What to eat after abortion to recover quickly
After abortion, women should determine a reasonable diet based on their physical condition and blood loss. Firstly, it is essential to ensure sufficient supply of protein, vitamins, and inorganic salts, especially iron supplementation, as some women may experience symptoms of anemia.
Secondly, when choosing food, women should consume more easily digestible and absorbable foods that are nutritious, such as fresh fish, tender chicken, eggs, animal liver, animal blood, lean meat, soy products, dairy products, dates, lotus seeds, fresh fruits and vegetables. Especially drinking more chicken soup and fish soup can help with recovery after miscarriage.
Precautions after abortion
However, for some greasy and cold foods such as radish, hawthorn, bitter gourd, orange, etc., women who have had an abortion should never touch them because these foods are not beneficial for the recovery of the body. In addition, women should also pay attention to the following things after abortion:
(1) Try to rest in bed as much as possible and avoid engaging in heavy physical labor and touching cold water. After abortion, one should rest in bed for at least 2-3 days and refrain from heavy physical labor or taking cold showers for 15 days.
(2) Keep the vagina clean, but do not use a bath for half a month to prevent vaginal infections.
(3) Sexual activity is prohibited within one month, as the uterus has not fully recovered and sexual activity can lead to re infection of the vagina, which may affect the ability to reproduce.
(4) If continuous bleeding is found more than a week after miscarriage, accompanied by symptoms such as lower abdominal pain and fever, it is necessary to go to the hospital for re examination in a timely manner, which may be because the embryonic tissue in the uterine cavity has not been completely cleared.
How long after abortion can I have a child
For women who have lost their children due to accidents, they may also want to have a child as soon as possible. So, how long after an abortion can they have another child? Normally, it is recommended that women who have had an abortion choose to conceive after one year, as the recovery of the uterus is not guaranteed to be complete in a short period of time and requires long-term conditioning. If forced to conceive again for a short period of time, it may cause another miscarriage.
