In addition, miscarriage leaves physical aftereffects as well as psychological trauma to the mother, so it needs to be cooked. Usually, after a miscarriage, people return to their daily activities without any special treatment, but the absence of symptoms does not mean that the body is not affected.
There are cases where there are no symptoms at first after miscarriage, but later symptoms of postpartum gout or female diseases such as irregular menstruation and menstrual pain occur. Also, after miscarriage, if you go about your daily life without proper cooking and become pregnant again, your risk of miscarriage increases. In oriental medicine, abortion is called ‘bansan’. As unripe chestnut husks are forcibly broken by external shocks, we are looking at them as putting a strain on the mother’s body. If you undergo spontaneous discharge or curettage due to miscarriage, stasis blood may remain, and damage to the uterus may occur. In particular, if you have had curettage surgery, you are at a greater risk of adversely affecting your next pregnancy due to damage to the endometrium. In addition, repeated miscarriages can also cause infertility, so taking care of yourself after a miscarriage is essential for the health of the mother and for maintaining a healthy next pregnancy.
What is a miscarriage in which the fetus dies in the womb?
After the fetus dies in the womb, miscarriages that remain in the womb without coming out occur most often between 6 and 10 weeks of pregnancy. Abortion is caused by chromosomal abnormalities, uterine malformations, endocrine disorders, or immunological abnormalities. It is very difficult to deal with a miscarriage because there are many cases where it appears without any special symptoms, or even if there are symptoms, the symptoms are very minimal to the extent that morning sickness occurs and then decreases. Therefore, it is important to strive for regular check-ups and prevention.
Compared to other abortions, curettage surgery itself is more difficult than other abortions, and the risk of side effects such as bleeding, inflammation, and uterine damage also increases. In addition, if the abortion is performed through curettage surgery, if the internal uterine wound is large, there is a risk of experiencing the pain of miscarriage again, such as interfering with preparing for pregnancy or having difficulty maintaining pregnancy again, and the risk of habitual miscarriage may also increase. Therefore, more thorough management and body care after miscarriage are necessary. A miscarriage can be frustrating for couples who are waiting for a child, especially for mothers, so you should try to avoid repeating them as they feel guilty for not coping properly.
