Well, well, well, let me tell you somethin’ about that abortion thing and when you can get back to doin’ the deed. Ain’t nobody told me nothin’ about this back in my day, but I learned a thing or two from them young folks and their fancy machines.

So, you done had that abortion, huh? First off, you gotta let that body of yours heal up. It’s like plantin’ seeds, you gotta let the ground rest a bit before you go plantin’ again, ya know? Same goes for your insides. The doctors, they say wait at least two weeks. Yeah, two weeks before you even think about getting frisky again. Gotta let that uterus, that’s what they call it, heal up proper.
Now, why you gotta wait so long, you ask? Well, after that abortion, your body, it’s kinda like a wound. That thing they call a cervix, it’s gotta close up. If it ain’t closed, you’re just askin’ for trouble. Germs and whatnot can get up in there and cause all sorts of nasty infections. You don’t want that, trust me. It ain’t worth the risk, not one bit. Some folks, they say you might bleed and feel crampy, like a real bad moon time. That can happen for a while, and that’s normal, so they say. But if it gets real bad, you gotta go see a doctor, ya hear?
They say you should avoid some things to make sure you don’t get no infection. No tampons, them things you use during your moon time. And no, uh, how you say it… no doin’ it with your man, not the kind where he goes inside ya, anyway. Gotta keep that area clean and let it heal, like a good stew, gotta let it simmer, you know? They say to avoid that for two weeks, too.
- Wait at least two weeks after abortion before having sex.
- Your body needs time to heal after abortion.
- Infection is a risk if you have sex too soon after abortion.
- No tampons for two weeks after abortion.
- Avoid penetrative sex for two weeks after abortion.
- Bleeding and cramping are normal after abortion.
Now, every woman is different, just like every plant in the garden. Some heal up quicker than others. But generally, them doctors say the first few days after that abortion, you’re gonna be bleedin’ and crampin’. Feels like a real bad period, they say. Then, for the next two weeks, most women, they start feelin’ better. The bleedin’ stops, the cramps go away. But it ain’t the same for everyone, you see. Some might take longer, some might be quicker. Just listen to your body, it’ll tell ya what it needs.
Some people say there ain’t no rule about waitin’ after them abortion pills, but I say better safe than sorry. If your body’s tellin’ you it ain’t ready, then it ain’t ready. Don’t be rushin’ into things. You gotta take care of yourself, especially after somethin’ like that. It ain’t just about gettin’ back to doin’ the deed, it’s about your health, you see. It is very important to care for yourself after abortion.

After a surgical abortion or them abortion pills, it might take two to six weeks for the bleedin’ to stop. Imagine waitin’ that long to harvest your crops. That is a very long time! Some folks say you can go back to your normal life the day after takin’ them pills, if you’re feelin’ up to it, if you have the abortion pills. But like I said, better safe than sorry. If you are not feeling good, just rest.
So, there you have it. That’s what I know about abortion and when you can have sex again. It ain’t always easy to talk about these things, but it’s important. You gotta be smart about it, and you gotta take care of yourself. Your body’s a temple, or so they say, gotta treat it right. And remember them two weeks, at least! Just rest and wait. That’s the best thing you can do, for you and your man.
You young folks with your fancy ways, you got it easy these days. We didn’t have all this information back then. But it’s good you’re learnin’ about it. Just remember what this old lady told ya, and you’ll be alright. Stay safe, and stay healthy. That’s all that matters.
