Induced labor, also known as labor induction, refers to the use of artificial methods to induce childbirth in a woman, by removing the developed but not yet mature embryo and placenta from the uterus, in order to end the pregnancy. This is known as induced labor surgery, which can cause significant harm to the female body. So what is the reason for the lack of bleeding after induced abortion?
Under normal circumstances, uterine bleeding may occur after induced abortion. Generally speaking, there will be vaginal bleeding 7-10 days after induced abortion, mainly caused by uterine injury. If there is no bleeding after induced abortion, it is an abnormal phenomenon, which may be due to weak qi and blood or uterine coldness. It is necessary to go to the gynecology department for detailed examination in a timely manner. After identifying the cause, targeted methods should be adopted for recuperation according to the doctor's advice.
So, what should women pay attention to after induced abortion?
1. Pay attention to rest. Although appropriate exercise can be done after surgery, vigorous exercise and heavy physical labor should not be done, otherwise it will worsen symptoms such as abdominal pain and bleeding. Especially for about three days after surgery, bed rest should be the main focus, and activity can be appropriately increased for about a week.
2. Pay attention to your diet. The body is very weak after induced abortion surgery. At this time, we should focus on eating high nutrition, digestible, non irritating foods, such as vegetables and fruits, eggs, bean products, Congee, fish, lean meat, etc. Try not to consume stimulating foods too early, such as spicy food, greasy food, cold food, tobacco and alcohol, to avoid adverse effects on the body's recovery.
3. Pay attention to personal hygiene. After induced abortion surgery, there may be vaginal bleeding, and hygiene products should be changed every two to three hours to prevent bacterial growth and gynecological diseases. Develop the habit of regularly cleaning the external genitalia and changing underwear. You can wash the external genitalia with warm water before going to bed every night to ensure that it is clean and dry.
4. Be careful not to resume sexual activity too early. At least wait until the body recovers for a month before going to the hospital for a follow-up examination. Sexual activity can only occur after the uterus has fully recovered. Do not have sexual intercourse too early, otherwise it may cause intrauterine infection. In addition, it is necessary to do a good job in contraception. It is best not to conceive again within six months after induced abortion to avoid negative effects on fetal development.
