On the fifth day of abortion, my stomach feels like menstrual cramps

In today's highly open sexual life, premarital sex is no longer a new thing. Of course, there are also many men and women in marriage who fail to take proper contraceptive measures during sexual intercourse and become pregnant unexpectedly. Since they are not able to have children, they have no choice but to choose abortion. That is what we call abortion. Abortion is extremely harmful to women's health. For example, some women experience dysmenorrhea five days after abortion. What is going on?

1. Infection after abortion

This is one of the possible complications after abortion. Postoperative infection often occurs within two weeks after surgery. It can be caused directly by the surgical operation or by the patient's lack of attention to hygiene after surgery, such as having sexual intercourse, swimming, etc.

2. Incomplete abortion

After an abortion, the uterus undergoes paroxysmal contractions in order to expel the remaining embryonic tissue from the uterus. At this time, the patient has paroxysmal attacks of abdominal pain, which are unbearable. There is also increased vaginal bleeding, which is bright red in color and contains large blood clots. The abdominal pain is relieved after the blood clots are discharged.

3. Uterine blood accumulation

It usually occurs within a few hours after the abortion. The patient has unbearable abdominal pain, as if cut by a knife, and a small amount of blood and water flows out of the vagina. Gynecological examination reveals that the uterus is significantly enlarged, soft, and tender. The number of people who develop intrauterine hematoma is also very small, but it is more likely to occur in women with an overly tilted uterus and a tight cervix.

4. Uterine perforation

Patients with this condition generally experience severe abdominal pain. Of course, a small number of people do not feel obvious pain. Experts say that the abdominal pain caused by uterine perforation is persistent, and a small amount of blood will appear in the vagina. If the uterine perforation is not serious and there is no internal bleeding, conservative treatment can be performed. However, if the uterine perforation is more serious, a uterine curettage operation is required, which is more harmful.

Expert tips: Patients who have undergone artificial abortion must pay attention to post-abortion care, which can effectively avoid the occurrence of post-operative complications. Improve nutrition, adjust your work and rest schedule, and avoid catching cold. If you experience abdominal pain after a painless abortion and it lasts for more than 3 days, go to the hospital as soon as possible.

What should you pay attention to after abortion?

1. Proper nutrition supplement: Proper nutrition supplement, eat more foods rich in protein and vitamins, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meat, fresh fish, eggs, milk or soy products, etc.

2. Take good contraceptive measures to avoid getting pregnant again in a short period of time.

3. Pay attention to personal hygiene after abortion, otherwise it is easy to cause infection. Sexual intercourse should be avoided within one month after an abortion; sanitary pads should be changed frequently during bleeding; sitting baths cannot be taken within half a month, only showers can be taken.

4. Pay attention to bleeding: About a week after the abortion, there will be red or light red secretions in the vagina, the amount will gradually decrease, and there will be no obvious odor. If the bleeding time exceeds 15 days, the amount of bleeding is greater than the menstrual volume, especially if the secretion has a foul odor and is accompanied by symptoms such as fever and stomach pain, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time to avoid worsening of the condition.
