How long to rest after uterine polyp surgery

In obstetrics and gynecology, uterine intrauterine polyps are a relatively common uterine disease, which often causes inflammation. Patients may experience symptoms such as abnormal leucorrhea, irregular menstruation, and non-menstrual bleeding. In order to avoid other complications, surgery is required. So, how many days should I rest after uterine wall polyp surgery?

Uterine wall polyp surgery causes relatively little damage to the human body, and there will not be a lot of bleeding. Even if there is bleeding, it will stop in 2-3 days. Therefore, you usually need to rest for about a week after the operation, and you can go back to work after recovery.

You should pay attention to rest after the operation. It is recommended not to take a sitz bath or have sex within one month. You don't need to do too strenuous exercise to prevent excessive fatigue from affecting the repair of the wound. In terms of hygiene, it is recommended to change underwear frequently, wash the vulva with warm water, and keep it dry and clean. In addition, you should pay more attention to abnormal uterine bleeding. If you find abnormal bleeding, go to the doctor immediately.

In addition, after the operation, you should supplement your nutrition, eat more protein-rich foods such as eggs, meat, fish, milk, cheese, etc., and eat more fruits and vegetables, paying attention to the proper combination. Avoid eating spicy food and irritating food. Maintain a regular schedule after the operation, maintain a happy mood and have regular follow-up visits.

Uterine wall polyps are more likely to recur after surgery. If you want to get pregnant, it is recommended to start preparing for pregnancy after the first normal menstruation. If you wait a long time before preparing for pregnancy, it is likely to affect pregnancy due to recurrence. In other words, the recurrence of uterine wall polyps is not conducive to normal pregnancy, so it is recommended to prepare for pregnancy as early as possible.
