Is It Safe To Use Marijuana After An Abortion ?

i just had a surgical abortion today and i usually smoke marijuana at night to sleep. is it ok to smoke tonight even if I've just had the procudure this morning? i haven't smoked in a few days as my doctor said it would be a good idea to stop smoking at least 48 hours before my surgery. but I'm having some pain and emotional stress and i know smoking will help with that. is it safe?

Hi,

You may avoid smoking for the next two days as well.

This is just to see that you are not having any bleeding tendency after your abortion. Rarely smoking marijuana can be related to post abortion bleeding.
