First, the surgical trauma of termination of pregnancy will reduce the natural defense ability of the uterine cavity, leading to reproductive tract infection, fallopian tube obstruction, and infertility; secondly, during the termination of pregnancy, excessive suction or curettage may cause cervical adhesion blockage or uterine cavity adhesion shrinkage, making it impossible for the fertilized egg to implant and develop; thirdly, due to multiple curettages, the endometrium becomes thinner, which can easily lead to habitual abortion; finally, the operation of the endometrium during termination of pregnancy surgery can cause endometritis and may also cause varying degrees of damage to the cervix. The more times a pregnancy is terminated, the greater the damage to the cervix, causing the internal opening to become rough, loose, and incompletely functional, making miscarriage and premature birth more likely to occur.
