What are the hazards of female abortion?

1. Endometriosis

Repeated absorption of uterine contents may lead to adhesions between the uterine cavity and cervical canal, accumulation of blood in the uterine cavity or menstrual flow 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 is soft and thin. Multiple pregnancies, multiple induced abortions, and perforation of the soft and thin uterine wall can be life-threatening.

4. Complications during re pregnancy

Infertility, late miscarriage, premature birth, perinatal mortality rate, increased antepartum and postpartum bleeding rates, and increased neonatal hemolysis.

5. Amenorrhea

Multiple consecutive induced abortions result in repeated damage to the basal layer of the endometrium, and the functional layer cannot grow again. 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.

How to maintain after an abortion?

1. Maintain the regularity of life

Even if the abortion surgery is successful, life after a manual abortion is irregular, with bleeding or sequelae. After a miscarriage, you can rest for a day in the hospital or go home. In the following days, go to the hospital for observation and treatment to ensure adequate rest.

2. Supplementary nutrition

After induced abortion, one should eat a nutritious and balanced diet to supplement nutrition and quickly restore health. Eat more meat, eggs, milk, legumes, whole grains, and fresh vegetables to supplement the protein, folic acid, vitamins, and other substances needed for recovery, promoting the body to recover as soon as possible.
