Introduction

Under normal circumstances, "ren liu" refers to an induced abortion procedure. Since ginger candy water may affect the repair of the endometrium, it is generally not recommended to consume ginger candy water after an induced abortion. In daily life, it is advisable to maintain a balanced diet, drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, and practice good personal hygiene to avoid infections. If any discomfort occurs, prompt medical attention is recommended.

Generally, "ren liu" refers to an induced abortion procedure. Because ginger brown sugar water may affect the repair of the endometrium, it is generally not recommended to consume ginger brown sugar water after an induced abortion procedure. The specific explanation is as follows:

After an induced abortion, the endometrium is injured and requires time to recover. Ginger brown sugar water, made from ginger juice and brown sugar, has effects of promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis and warming the meridians to dispel cold. It may stimulate uterine contractions, leading to increased bleeding or worsening of discomfort, thus impairing the healing of the endometrium. Additionally, the ginger component in ginger brown sugar water is irritant in nature and may stimulate uterine contractions, increasing bleeding and being unfavorable for postoperative recovery. Therefore, women who have undergone induced abortion should avoid consuming foods and medications that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis to prevent interference with endometrial repair.

After an induced abortion, it is recommended that diet should be light and easily digestible, avoiding spicy and irritating foods. For patients needing nutritional supplementation, foods rich in protein and vitamins can be selected. At the same time, maintaining adequate sleep and moderate physical activity can help the body recover.

It is also recommended to maintain a balanced diet and drink plenty of water to stay hydrated in daily life. Personal hygiene should be maintained to avoid infection. If any discomfort occurs, it is advisable to seek timely medical attention.

What happens if you take emergency contraception 15 days after an abortion?

Fifteen days after an abortion, the body has not yet fully recovered. Taking emergency contraceptive pills at this time may generally lead to menstrual disorders, worsen gastrointestinal discomfort, and interfere with endometrial repair. Emergency contraceptive pills contain high doses of hormones. Since hormone levels in the body are already undergoing adjustment after an abortion, taking these pills can easily disrupt hormonal balance, causing the menstrual cycle to come earlier or be delayed, and in some cases may also result in abnormal menstrual flow.
