Introduction
Under normal circumstances, "ren liu" refers to an induced abortion. Whether one can return to work a week after the procedure depends on the individual's recovery status. If the recovery is satisfactory, returning to work may be considered. However, if the recovery is poor, it is not recommended. Regular monitoring is necessary, and if symptoms such as increased bleeding or poor recovery occur, timely treatment under a doctor's guidance is required.

In general, "ren liu" refers to an induced abortion. Whether one can return to work a week after the procedure depends on the individual's recovery status. If recovery is progressing well, returning to work may be considered. However, if recovery is unsatisfactory, it is not recommended. Detailed explanations are as follows:

If one week after the induced abortion the patient is recovering well, with significantly reduced vaginal bleeding and no symptoms such as abdominal pain, fatigue, or pallor, returning to work may be feasible, especially if the workload is not heavy. Nevertheless, it's important to balance work and rest to avoid negatively affecting the recovery process.

If the recovery is slower than expected and the patient hasn't returned to normal within a week post-procedure, particularly if symptoms such as abdominal pain, frequent vaginal bleeding, or pallor persist, it is advisable to avoid returning to work too soon. At this time, adequate rest and sufficient daily sleep are necessary to prevent complications such as incomplete uterine involution.

After an induced abortion, it is advisable to rest as much as possible to promote recovery. Additionally, regular monitoring is necessary, and if symptoms such as increased bleeding or delayed recovery occur, timely, targeted treatment under a physician's guidance is recommended.
