For women of childbearing age, if there is a situation where they cannot continue to conceive during pregnancy, they should terminate the pregnancy as soon as possible to avoid serious impact on their body. As abortion surgery can cause certain damage to women's bodies, it is important to pay attention to postoperative care and maintenance. Therefore, some women have asked how long they should rest after a 3-month abortion?
How long women need to rest after an abortion should be determined based on their individual physical condition. Generally, for abortions within 3 months of pregnancy, about 2 weeks of rest is sufficient after the operation. However, if the woman's physical condition is poor, the recovery of the body after the abortion is slow, or if she is not careful after the operation and causes infection, she needs to rest for a longer period of time to recover her health. For abortions lasting more than 3 months, women need to rest for at least 1 month after the abortion.
During the rest period after the flow of people, especially the first three days after the flow of people, women should focus on bed rest to reduce unnecessary activities. They can get out of bed moderately from the the fourth day, so as to promote uterine contraction and rejuvenation, which is conducive to the discharge of lochia. Women should also avoid doing hard housework or strenuous exercise to avoid complications such as excessive uterine bleeding and uterine prolapse. Pay attention to cleaning and hygiene of private parts to prevent postoperative infection.
After an abortion, women must pay attention to strengthening their nutrition. They can eat more foods rich in high-quality protein and multiple vitamins, which can not only promote the recovery of damaged uterus, but also enhance physical fitness and improve immunity. They can also eat foods such as hawthorn that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, which are beneficial for the excitation and contraction of the uterus. However, they should control the amount and avoid eating too much. They can also eat some foods that nourish qi and blood to prevent anemia. Cold, spicy and stimulating foods must be avoided.
