What are the dangers of having sex one month after an abortion?

Abortion can cause great harm to the body, so we must pay close attention to our physical condition after the abortion, so that our body can keep up with the functional needs and avoid causing secondary harm to it. However, many women do not know this knowledge and have sex again within one month after an abortion. So, how should we face and solve this situation? Let's listen to the experts' opinions:

1 First of all, we prohibit this behavior

It is generally recommended to refrain from sexual intercourse within one month after an abortion. This is because, firstly, ovulation is very likely to occur half a month after an abortion, and if no appropriate contraceptive measures are taken, pregnancy is possible. Second, having sex within half a month after an abortion often causes many gynecological diseases, because the abortion method is to remove the embryonic tissue attached to the endometrium. This will inevitably cause a certain degree of damage to the endometrium. The natural immune system of the female reproductive tract is damaged, and the uterus is also damaged and irritated to a certain extent, which can easily induce infection. If you have sexual intercourse too soon after surgery, bacteria can easily enter the vagina, increasing the chance of infection, causing endometritis, salpingitis, and even infertility. Therefore, it is recommended not to have sexual intercourse for the time being. Wait until the re-examination and the doctor thinks everything has returned to normal before considering having sexual intercourse.

2 Reliable measures need to be taken

Generally speaking, the lochia will be gone two weeks after an abortion, but you have to wait a month before you can resume sexual life. So, why do you have to wait two weeks after the lochia is clean before you can have sex? This is not only because after an abortion, a person's mental state and physical strength need a recovery process, but more importantly, the uterus, ovaries and other sexual reproductive organs need a full repair and adjustment period. Anyone who has had an abortion knows that the method of abortion is to remove the embryonic tissue attached to the endometrium. This will inevitably cause a certain degree of damage to the endometrium. Within two weeks after the abortion, although the lochia has cleared, the trauma to the endometrium has not completely recovered. If you have sexual intercourse too early, the bacteria brought into the vagina can easily ascend and cause gynecological diseases such as endometritis. Therefore, it is better to have sexual intercourse one month after abortion to prevent intrauterine infection. If lochia persists after surgery, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment, and sexual intercourse should be postponed. It should be noted that the ovaries generally resume ovulating function quickly after abortion. Therefore, reliable contraceptive measures must be taken when resuming sexual life, otherwise there is a possibility of pregnancy again. Repeated abortions will inevitably bring harm to the woman's health.
