In modern society, people's thinking is becoming increasingly open, with more and more unmarried cohabiting men and women, and the number of women who accidentally conceive is also increasing year by year. Unexpected pregnancy brings many inconveniences to life and work, so many people choose to undergo abortion. Although abortion is a minor surgery, it has a significant impact on women's physical health. So, what are the hazards of women having an abortion? How to maintain health after an abortion?
What are the hazards of women having an abortion?
1. Endometriosis
Repeated aspiration of the contents of the uterine cavity may cause adhesions in the uterine cavity and cervical canal, and may also lead to uterine bleeding or menstrual blood flowing back into the abdominal cavity, causing endometriosis and periodic lower abdominal pain.
2. Long term complications
Such as chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, menstrual abnormalities, secondary infertility, and endometriosis.
3. Uterine perforation, life-threatening
During pregnancy, the uterine wall becomes soft and thin. Multiple pregnancies and induced abortions can easily penetrate the soft and thin uterine wall, causing uterine perforation and endangering life.
4. Complications during second pregnancy
Infertility, late miscarriage, premature birth, perinatal mortality rate, increased prenatal and postpartum bleeding rates, and increased neonatal hemolysis.
5. Appear amenorrhea
Repeated artificial abortions can repeatedly damage the basal layer of the endometrium, resulting in the inability of the functional layer to regrow. At this point, the ovarian function is complete, ovulation is scheduled every month, the functional layer of the endometrium falls off and cannot regenerate, menstruation does not occur, and amenorrhea occurs.
6. Dystocia and placental retention during second pregnancy
Repeated artificial abortion surgery involves scraping the endometrium more frequently, and the more times the scraping is performed, the greater the damage to the endometrium. If you want to conceive again, placenta transplantation and adhesion are prone to occur, as well as difficult labor and placenta retention.
7. Recent complications
Induced abortion is incomplete, and vaginal bleeding lasts for more than 15 days. Within 2 weeks after surgery, uterine adhesions such as endometritis, adnexitis, and pelvic inflammatory disease may occur due to pathogenic bacterial infections, resulting in a significant reduction in postoperative amenorrhea and menstrual volume, as well as periodic lower abdominal pain and uterine bleeding
How to supplement after female abortion?
1. Pay attention to dietary supplements
Because miscarriage causes certain harm to the body, not only does it result in the loss of a certain amount of blood, but it also adds to the psychological pressure and physical pain during the miscarriage process, making the body weak after miscarriage. Some people may have a tendency towards anemia. Appropriate supplementation is completely necessary, but the degree and duration of supplementation depend on the physical condition and bleeding volume of the miscarriage victim. Comprehensive measurement is appropriate, and nutrition should not be excessive.
Firstly, it is necessary to ensure the supply of high-quality protein, sufficient vitamins, and inorganic salts, especially by supplementing with sufficient iron to prevent the occurrence of anemia.
Food selection should focus on nutrition and be easy to digest and absorb. Fresh fish, tender chicken, eggs, animal liver, animal blood, lean meat, soy products, dairy products, dates, lotus seeds, fresh fruits and vegetables.
2. Pay attention to dietary taboos
Don't eat greasy raw and cold foods, and don't eat Qi, blood circulation, and cold foods such as radishes, hawthorn, bitter gourds, and oranges. You should eat more easily digestible food. The best replenishment time is half a month. For those who are physically weak, have poor physical fitness, and have a lot of bleeding, the replenishment time can be appropriately extended.
