Can I wash my hair during the first month of confinement?

One time when I was reading Weibo, I saw a former colleague post something like "experienced another life and death experience." I found it very strange at the time. I didn't know why, but I was very worried about her, so I asked her about it. It turned out that she had an unexpected pregnancy and had an operation. Oh my God, that was really a life and death experience. I told her to take good care of herself and recuperate well. There are many things to pay attention to during the confinement period, and one careless move can leave people with illnesses. So can you wash your hair during the confinement period? Let’s find out together.

My friends around me say that I am afraid of marriage. Actually, I am not afraid of marriage, but I am afraid of having children. It feels too painful. I once joked to my mother that I would be single for the rest of my life. If it doesn’t work out, I would adopt a child. Whenever I said this, my mother would criticize me harshly. But I feel very painful when I see people having children. And there are a series of precautions after giving birth, which are so complicated, including not washing hair, taking a bath, etc. So can I wash my hair during the confinement period?

How to care

1. Pay attention to proper rest after the operation. It is best to rest in bed for the first three days. Because after the artificial pregnancy operation, the endometrium is left with a wound, if you move too early, it may prolong the vaginal bleeding time. Generally, you should avoid physical labor and physical exercise within half a month.

2. Increase nutrition appropriately, because the operation will cause a small amount of bleeding and cause certain damage to the body, so you should promptly supplement with some foods rich in protein and vitamins, such as lean meat, fresh fish, eggs, milk or soy products.

3. Observe the bleeding. During the unexpected pregnancy surgery, after the placenta is separated, there may be a small amount of bleeding on the wound left on the uterine wall. In this case, as the uterus contracts and the wound repairs, vaginal bleeding will gradually stop in 3-5 days and will not exceed 10-15 days at most. If the amount of vaginal bleeding exceeds the amount of menstrual blood, lasts too long, and is even accompanied by abnormal symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, fever, turbid and smelly leucorrhea, you should consider the possibility of infection or the presence of residues in the uterus, and seek medical treatment in time.

4. Adhere to good contraception. After the surgery for unexpected pregnancy, the ovaries will resume ovulation in about 1 month, and then menstruation will come. Therefore, as long as you resume your sexual life after artificial pregnancy surgery, you should further strengthen contraceptive measures and use appropriate contraceptive methods or sterilization measures under the guidance of a doctor to prevent pregnancy again. If you are planning to use an IUD for contraception, you can have it inserted at the same time as the unexpected pregnancy surgery, because the success rate of IUD insertion is high, the shedding rate is low, and there are fewer side effects.

5. After an unexpected pregnancy surgery, the body's resistance decreases, so more attention should be paid to personal hygiene. Because of the wounds left on the endometrium, vaginal secretions increase, making it a breeding ground for bacterial infection and reproduction. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the cleanliness of the vulva, shower and clean the vulva in time, disinfect the toilet paper and change it frequently; avoid taking a bath in a tub within half a month, and change underwear frequently; and sexual intercourse is absolutely prohibited within one month to prevent bacterial infection. These are important measures to prevent gynecological diseases such as endometritis, salpingitis, and pelvic inflammatory disease.

Through the above, we know the precautions during the short confinement period. Women at this time should enjoy the treatment like queens. I hope people can understand it correctly and try not to cause avoidable injuries. So, can you wash your hair during the short confinement period? Actually, you can, as long as you grasp the time and precautions correctly, you can actually wash your hair.
