We came across a case where a girl in her 20s came to the obstetrics and gynecology clinic and told the doctor that she had just had an abortion and her stomach was in pain. The doctor asked her in detail about her situation, only to learn that the girl couldn't help but have sex with her boyfriend less than a week after the operation.
Every time we hear such cases, we always feel both regretful and helpless. With the opening of social sexual concepts, many women have intercourse before marriage, but many of them do not have a real scientific sense of self-protection.
Many girls don't take care of their bodies when they are young, and it is often too late to regret them.
01
How Long After Abortion Can I Have Sex?
There are many uterine surgeries for women, such as abortion, medical abortion, diagnostic curettage, etc., although the purpose of the surgery is different, but they are all operated on through the dilated cervix, and the operation will leave wounds of different sizes in the uterine cavity, so there may be many different amounts of bleeding after the operation.
Nutrient-rich blood is a breeding ground for germs, and if you don't take care of it and prevent it, infections are likely to occur. Therefore, doctors will tell patients after surgery that they should not have intercourse for one month after surgery.
If you do not realize the importance of this, you will not only be prone to inflammation of the genital tract if you have intercourse too early after surgery, but also be more likely to cause intrauterine and pelvic infections, such as pelvic inflammatory disease.
Once the infection develops, women develop fever, abdominal pain, and pus in the vaginal passages. What's even more terrifying is that the infection may also cause damage and adhesion of the endometrium, adhesion and blockage of the fallopian tubes, and cause infertility.
In addition to causing infection, the doctor is more worried about having intercourse too soon after an abortion, that is, she will get pregnant again in a short period of time and have to have surgery again.
Don't be naïve! If you don't do a good job of contraception after an abortion, you can get pregnant as soon as the same month!

Do these points to protect yourself before and after the flow of people
01
Do a good job of testing before surgery
If there is a situation that is not suitable for immediate surgery, such as vaginal tractitis and cervicitis, it is necessary to actively treat it, and do not operate with disease, otherwise the original germs will be brought into the uterine cavity and cause infection.
02
Postoperative infection prevention
If necessary, the doctor will prescribe some antibiotics after surgery to prevent postoperative infection.
03
Pay attention to cleanliness after surgery
Pay attention to the cleaning of private parts after surgery.
04
Refrain from having sex with others
It is recommended to stop living in the same room for one month after the abortion. So that the endometrium can recover well and the wound can heal.
05
Use contraception
Contraception is recommended for intercourse after an abortion.
Remind female friends to take care of their bodies, do a good job of contraception when there is no need to have children, seek help from a doctor in time in case of accidents, do not take chances after surgery, and should follow the doctor's instructions for reasonable treatment and recuperation to minimize the damage.
