Is medical abortion plus uterine curettage a double injury?

There are many ways to abort an unexpected pregnancy, and medical abortion is a common method. Some women are afraid of abortion surgery, so they choose medical abortion. Medical abortion is more convenient, but it has limitations. It must be confirmed that the pregnancy is within 49 days, and medical abortion is prone to incomplete abortion. Once the abortion is incomplete, a second uterine curettage is required. Does medical abortion plus uterine curettage cause double damage?

Medical abortion plus uterine curettage cannot be said to be secondary damage. Medical abortion is originally a remedial measure for the failure of contraceptive measures. Artificial abortion is a surgical removal performed because medical abortion cannot completely eliminate the problem. Of course, both surgeries can cause harm to the body. So whether it is medical abortion or artificial abortion, young friends, please be especially cautious.

There are many taboos in medical abortion

Medical abortion must first be an intrauterine pregnancy. And female friends must be in good health, without high blood pressure, anemia, uterine fibroids and other diseases. If you have never given birth and have a history of failed medical abortions, we do not recommend medical abortion. Before the conversation, the doctor will also ask about the medical history in detail. We must undergo a detailed examination and finally confirm that the woman can tolerate medical abortion before prescribing the medicine.

Under what circumstances is a palace cleaning necessary?

1. There are residual embryonic tissues in the uterine cavity: After medical abortion, if the embryonic sac is not expelled, or if these residues are found after examination, then a uterine curettage operation is required.

2. Severe bleeding after medical abortion: After medical abortion, you need to be observed in the hospital. Once you find that a female friend has persistent vaginal bleeding, regardless of whether the embryo has come out or not, we need to perform a uterine cleaning. I would like to warn all female compatriots here that after a medical abortion, everyone must observe the situation carefully and never take any medicine on their own.

3. Less bleeding: If the amount of bleeding after medical abortion is less, it may be that the medical abortion has failed and the embryo continues to grow, or it may be that the embryo has died but has not been expelled. In both cases, we actually need to perform a uterine curettage. Therefore, female friends should go to the hospital for a check-up about a week after the abortion to avoid infection due to failed abortion.

4. Long bleeding time: Long bleeding time has always been a disadvantage of medical abortion, and it usually lasts about three days. If vaginal bleeding lasts for three weeks or more, regardless of whether the embryo has been discharged or not, you should go to the hospital for examination. If any residue is found, uterine curettage must be performed.

Medical abortion has actually caused some damage to the uterus of female friends. If there is residual tissue, then during the process of uterine cleaning, we are actually causing secondary damage to the female uterus. Therefore, more female friends tend to choose artificial abortion.

Although medical abortion is more convenient, it is sometimes incomplete, so we also need to perform a uterine curettage to remove the remaining tissue. In fact, this will cause greater harm to women, so everyone must be cautious when choosing the method of medical abortion. For example, you must go to a regular hospital, and if you have failed before, then don't try it again.
