How long does it take to have an abortion?

  According to the national legal leave for abortion, 2 weeks of rest after abortion is sufficient, and depending on the patient’s recovery, the rest period may need to be extended appropriately.  The physiological recovery period after abortion is 2 weeks. 2 weeks of rest is not a requirement for absolute bed rest, but mainly to avoid fatigue, cold, and prolonged standing so as not to affect the body’s recovery. Usually, after abortion and medical abortion, bed rest is required for 1-2 days, and you can get out of bed for 3-5 days. Proper activity and walking can promote the discharge of residual mucosal tissue or blood in the uterine cavity. If you stay in bed for a long time after abortion, it may lead to the accumulation of blood in the uterine cavity, resulting in incomplete abortion. Some women have low resistance and are weak, so the rest time can be extended according to the recovery situation.  In addition, after the abortion, pay attention to strengthening nutrition, pay attention to warmth, avoid contact with cold water, and prohibit sexual life and tub bathing for one month after the operation to avoid premature sexual life affecting the recovery of the uterus or causing infection.
