My clinic says 3 weeks which is when you are supposed to go in for a follow-up.

However, I have heard that other clinics suggest 2 weeks.

see ive heard so many different times when you can use them.....but ive also heard that they can cause an infection too:(

I am going to wait the entire 3 weeks before using them just to be on the safe side. I do not want to get an infection.

Luckily for me, I stopped bleeding rather quickly. I hate using maxi-pads.

WE recommend that you wait ONE WEEK.


After any FIRST trimester abortion, your cervix would be closed by 7 days.

so is there any chance of an infection once the cervix closes?

No.

That is how the bacteria gets inside of you, through your cervix.

A LOT of clinics say wait 2-3-4 weeks to have sex or put anything inside of the vagina because they do not want you to get pregnant again so soon.

thank you so much:)

Yes, that makes me feel at ease also. Thanks!
