Why does heavy bleeding occur after abortion?

Abortion surgery has a relatively large impact and harm on women, so I hope every female friend can have a scientific understanding of the issue of abortion surgery. Because many women will find that they have heavy bleeding after abortion surgery. This situation must not be ignored. It may mean that the operation was not done cleanly or the body did not recover well. Now let’s introduce some reasons for heavy bleeding after abortion and coping strategies.

Generally, there is a 7-14 day bleeding period after an abortion, but it may be earlier or later. If the bleeding time is longer or the amount of bleeding is heavier, or if there are symptoms such as abdominal pain, it is highly likely that the abortion is incomplete. You need to go to the hospital in time for a clear diagnosis and take appropriate treatment measures.

Women who have had a miscarriage should not participate in physical labor too early, otherwise, they are likely to suffer from "uterine prolapse". In terms of daily life, you should wash your hair less often, avoid drinking cold drinks, and keep warm clothes to prevent catching a cold and allow your body to return to normal as soon as possible.

After miscarriage, eat more nutritious foods, as well as fresh vegetables and fruits. Within half a month after an artificial abortion, you should eat more chicken, lean pork, eggs, milk, beans, and bean products. Avoid eating irritating foods, such as chili peppers, alcohol, etc., as these foods can stimulate congestion of the sexual organs and increase vaginal blood flow. In addition, make sure to get enough iron to prevent anemia after miscarriage. The best time for nourishing is half a month. For those who are weak, have poor physical condition, or have lost a lot of blood, the nourishing time can be appropriately extended as appropriate.

Matters needing attention during artificial abortion: 1. Proper rest: According to relevant national regulations, women can enjoy two weeks of vacation after artificial abortion. It is best to avoid physical labor and physical exercise within half a month. 2. Proper nutritional supplement: Proper nutritional supplement, eat more foods rich in protein and vitamins, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meat, fresh fish, eggs, milk or soy products. 3. Pay attention to personal hygiene: 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 abdominal pain, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time to avoid worsening of the condition. 5. Do a good job of contraception.

No matter how high-tech the abortion surgery is, the impact and harm it causes to women cannot be zero. So this also tells every woman that they should learn to take better care of themselves in life and take safety measures in sexual life. After all, the harm caused by abortion surgery to one's physical and mental health may be permanent.
