Does abortion hurt your body?

For women who are in their ovulation period, if they do not take protective measures during sex, they are very likely to become pregnant. However, many young people are not financially capable and are not ready to have children, so they want to choose abortion to solve this problem. However, in addition to thinning the woman's uterus, abortion can also have a series of side effects, so it should be chosen with caution.

The harm of painless abortion to the body

1. Irregular menstruation is the most common

Painless abortion can also damage the endometrium of women. If the recovery after the operation is not good, women are prone to menstrual disorders, prolonged menstrual cycles and many other problems, which will cause a series of health damages to women.

2. Prone to postoperative infection

If a woman has inflammation before undergoing a painless abortion, or if the inflammation is not controlled in time, it is easy to cause a secondary infection after the operation, leading to gynecological inflammation. After gynecological inflammation occurs, women are likely to experience many discomforts such as abnormal leucorrhea, odorous secretions, lower abdominal pain, etc. If not treated in time, it may also cause ascending infection.

3. Possible consequences of infertility

The trauma to the endometrium caused by painless abortion will reduce the female uterine cavity's defense ability, eventually causing reproductive tract infection. In severe cases, it may lead to blockage of the fallopian tubes. Once the fallopian tubes are blocked, the problem of infertility will naturally arise.

1. The operation should be performed within 70 days of pregnancy, and the doctor should be told truthfully about the possible time of conception, past pregnancy and delivery history, and important diseases.

6. You should not eat or drink anything for 6 hours before the abortion operation; avoid sexual intercourse within one week before the operation.
