I had a medical abortion about 45 days ago, and the bleeding had stopped, but now I'm noticing some spotting again. The blood looks kind of brownish and it's thicker than usual. I don't have any pain in my abdomen or fever, but I'm just a bit worried. Is this type of spotting and discharge normal, or should I be concerned?

I'm trying to figure out how many days I should rest after getting family planning surgery. Also, are there any specific precautions I need to keep in mind while recovering?

After family planning surgery, rest for at least **2-3 days** is generally recommended, avoiding heavy lifting and strenuous activities for about a week. Keep the surgical site clean and dry, monitor for any signs of infection like redness or swelling, and follow up with your doctor as advised.
