Which is more harmful, medical abortion or surgical abortion?

We all know that abortion will have more or less impact on women themselves, but if the child comes at the wrong time, many women choose to have an abortion. As for the method of abortion, it is usually medical abortion or painless abortion. Many women will ask themselves whether medical abortion is more harmful or surgical abortion is more harmful. Let's take a look at it now.

There are pros and cons. 1. Medical abortion: within 49 days of pregnancy, healthy women aged 18-40 years old, normal intrauterine pregnancy (if within six months after cesarean section, this method is recommended during breastfeeding), but the medical abortion time will be longer, generally 3-4 days, sometimes not completely, then this time must be a uterine cleaning.

2. Artificial abortion: (1) Vacuum aspiration: for pregnancy within 6-10 weeks (body temperature is less than 37.5 degrees twice before the operation, there is no inflammation of the reproductive system, and there is no serious cardiovascular and pulmonary disease); this method is more painful than medical abortion, but the artificial abortion time is short, it only takes a few minutes. If conditions permit, you can choose painless abortion.

(2) Curettage: 11-14 weeks of pregnancy; Medical abortion is less painful, safe, simple, and highly effective, with few or mild side effects. The most effective drug is mifepristone combined with misoprostol, with a complete abortion rate of 95%-98%. After taking this medicine, some people may experience mild abdominal pain, stomach pain, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and uterine contraction pain. Vaginal bleeding usually lasts 10-14 days after the embryo is expelled, and can last up to 1-2 months. If bleeding lasts for a long time after the gestational sac is removed or there is sudden heavy bleeding, emergency curettage should be performed. Infection treatment is required after surgery. Artificial abortion: The earlier the pregnancy, the simpler and safer the method is, and the less bleeding there is. However, this operation is performed in utero without direct vision and is somewhat blind, so it should not be performed frequently. If conditions permit, you can choose painless visual abortion, which is relatively expensive.

From the above introduction, we can see that whether it is surgical abortion or medical abortion, it will have a certain impact on women themselves. We must choose a method that suits us according to our actual situation. I hope everyone can make a careful choice.
