The third day of medical abortion

Unexpected pregnancy is a very common phenomenon in life. Some women choose medical abortion after an unexpected pregnancy, believing that medical abortion will cause little harm to their health. However, abdominal pain will occur on the third day after the abortion. If the abdominal pain is severe, it is best to go to the hospital for relevant examinations in time. After finding out the cause, symptomatic treatment should be given. If you do not plan to have children, you must take contraceptive measures in your daily life. Abortion is very harmful to women.

What are the dangers of medical abortion?

1. It can easily cause incomplete abortion: Some women may suffer incomplete abortion after taking the medicine, which affects uterine contraction and the repair of endometrial wounds, causing a significant increase in vaginal bleeding. In severe cases, heavy bleeding may occur, leading to anemia and shock.

2. Impact on future fertility: If women have repeated pregnancies and miscarriages, the endometrium may be repeatedly damaged. Once a normal pregnancy is required, placenta previa is likely to occur, which can cause heavy bleeding before delivery. Some women also experience habitual miscarriage due to multiple artificial abortions.

3. Easy to cause gynecological inflammation: After women take anti-pregnancy drugs, the embryonic sac tissue in the uterine cavity can be discharged on the same day. Sometimes the pregnancy tissue is not completely discharged, and vaginal bleeding lasts for a long time, which can last for 2-3 weeks or even 1-2 months. At this time, bacteria often retrograde from the vagina and cause endometrial inflammation.

The best time for medical abortion

The symptoms in early pregnancy are generally only nausea, vomiting, lower abdominal pain and fatigue, but its long-term side effects need further observation. Close observation is required after taking the medication. If medical abortion fails, surgery should be terminated in time.

In fact, medical abortion is also a kind of artificial abortion, which cannot guarantee 100% complete success. If abortion fails or bleeding is too much or lasts too long, curettage may still be required.

It usually takes three to four days from taking the medicine to the miscarriage of the fetus. Some women will experience adverse reactions such as abdominal pain and nausea, which also have a certain impact on women's health.

If the bleeding time is long and the amount of bleeding is heavy after medical abortion, it can also lead to anemia and infection. Moreover, medical abortion is not suitable for everyone, it has certain indications.

Medical abortion can be done within 49 days of pregnancy, but surgical abortion is required after 49 days.
