While shampooing is permissible after medical abortion, it is advisable to wait at least 5 days. Avoid cold water and ensure warmth. As the body is weakened post-procedure, ample rest is recommended, and early shampooing is discouraged. If shampooing is necessary, wait until two weeks after the procedure. Generally, avoid shampooing on the day of medical abortion to prevent catching a chill. Shampoo temperature must not be too low, ideally maintained around 37°C (98.6°F).After washing, dry hair promptly with a warm hair dryer. Additionally, avoid using overly harsh shampoo products post-medication abortion.
Importantly, ensure hair is completely dry before sleeping. Avoid washing hair immediately upon waking or right before bedtime. Washing hair early in the morning and going out immediately afterward increases susceptibility to wind and colds. Washing hair before bed may cause dampness to accumulate in the body, potentially leading to headaches.It is best to wash your hair during the warmer daytime hours. If washing in the evening, ensure hair is completely dry before retiring.
After a medical abortion, prioritize good nutrition and rest to strengthen your body's resistance to illness and promote the recovery of affected organs. Consume protein-rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, and soy products, along with vitamin-rich fresh vegetables to accelerate physical recovery.Begin nutritional supplementation immediately. Avoid raw, cold, or irritating foods. Where possible, dietary guidelines may resemble those for postpartum recovery. Additionally, observe postpartum restrictions: refrain from baths, avoid cold beverages, dress warmly, and prevent exposure to cold.
