During this time, it’s important to avoid activities that cause discomfort. Additionally, refrain from sexual intercourse or inserting tampons, douches, or any other objects into your vagina for 1 to 2 weeks following a medical abortion. This precaution reduces the risk of infections and supports your body’s healing process.
Throughout the recovery period, you may experience a range of emotions, such as relief, sadness, stress, or feelings of guilt. If these emotions become overwhelming, consider reaching out to a mental health professional, such as a therapist or counselor. They can provide support and techniques to help you navigate your feelings and improve your well-being.
