Harmful sequelae of induced abortion

Induced labor will have some sequelae, and the sequelae are often serious. So for some women who choose induced labor, in order to fully understand the hazards of the sequelae of induced labor? If you want to have a comprehensive understanding, the following content provides a full introduction for many women, so some women who want to have induced labor can fully understand the hazards of the sequelae of induced labor.

What are the possible dangers of induced labor? The process of induced labor may cause birth canal damage. During the process of induced labor, due to strong uterine contractions, small cervical opening and poor elasticity, birth canal damage is often prone to occur, such as posterior fornix, cervical opening lacerations and vaginal lacerations. At this time, the laceration site should be clearly exposed and sutured immediately to achieve the purpose of hemostasis.

Another serious injury is uterine rupture.

1. The fetal position or fetal malformation is not clear before induction of labor, such as hydrocephalus, conjoined twins, etc., which hinders the descent of the fetus during delivery, but cannot be delivered from the vagina, and finally leads to uterine rupture. The rupture is mostly in the lower part of the uterus, because this part is the thinnest after expansion;

2. In addition, if there is a history of artificial abortion perforation, too many artificial abortions, etc., there are old bruises on the uterine wall. When giving birth again, due to strong uterine contractions, uterine rupture is also likely to occur;

3. The abuse of oxytocin during induction of labor may cause the uterus to contract strongly due to excessive dosage, making it impossible for the cervix to expand, and uterine rupture may also occur.

Birth canal injury

During the induction of labor, due to strong uterine contractions, a small cervical opening and poor elasticity, birth canal injuries are often prone to occur, such as lacerations of the posterior fornix, cervical opening and vaginal lacerations. At this time, the laceration site should be clearly exposed and sutured immediately to achieve the purpose of hemostasis.

There is another serious injury, namely uterine rupture. The reason is that the fetal position is not clear before induction of labor or the fetus is deformed, such as hydrocephalus, conjoined twins, etc., which hinders the descent of the fetus during delivery, but cannot be delivered from the vagina, and finally leads to uterine rupture. The rupture is mostly in the lower part of the uterus, so it is the thinnest after expansion; in addition, if there is a history of perforation during artificial abortion, too many artificial abortions, etc., there are old bruises on the uterine wall, and the next delivery is prone to uterine rupture due to strong uterine contractions; the abuse of oxytocin during induction of labor, due to excessive dosage, causes strong contractions of the uterus, and the cervix cannot expand, which may also cause uterine rupture.

Uterine rupture caused by the above reasons can almost all be prevented. For example, do a good job of contraception and avoid multiple artificial abortions; do various examinations before induction of labor, and correct any abnormal fetal position or fetal abnormality immediately; closely observe the labor process during induction of labor, strictly control the indications and dosage of oxytocin, and once fetal abnormalities (such as conjoined twins) are found and uterine rupture is suspected, a small cesarean section should be performed immediately, and vaginal delivery should never be performed. Taking the above measures can avoid the occurrence of uterine rupture.

The hazards of induced labor sequelae have been introduced in detail above. Therefore, for many women who choose induced labor, in order to reduce the occurrence of sequelae, after a comprehensive understanding, if they need induced labor, they must choose a regular hospital. Moreover, after induced labor, in order to avoid an increase in sequelae, they must provide good post-induced labor care.
