Which is more harmful to the body, medical abortion or surgical abortion?

Giving birth is a very happy thing for women, but there are also special circumstances. For example, the baby does not grow completely in the mother's abdomen. Although heartbroken, many people still choose abortion (surgical abortion or medical abortion) to end the baby's life. So in terms of the degree of damage to women's bodies, which one is more harmful, surgical abortion or medical abortion?

Which one is more harmful, medical abortion or surgical abortion?

1. Medical abortion:

Medical abortion, also known as drug abortion, is a method of abortion by injection or medication without surgery in the short term. This method is suitable for the first 7 weeks of pregnancy. It uses drugs to force the uterus to contract significantly and remove the fetus from the body. Naturally, the uterus contracts significantly, which will make people feel abdominal pain. The degree and duration of pain vary from person to person due to different physical conditions.

The advantage of this method is that it avoids the risks of surgery and various complications, and is relatively easy to operate. The bad part is, 1. Due to different physical conditions, the fetus may not be eliminated after taking the medicine (or injection) for a week, which means that the medical abortion has failed, and you have to go to the hospital for a second time to undergo an abortion. 2. If internal bleeding occurs during the process of fetal excretion, other dangerous conditions may occur. 3. If the stomachache is severe, you may not be able to bear it and your body cannot hold on.

2. Abortion:

Abortion is what we often call abortion surgery, which is best done no more than 10 weeks. It is a surgical method to remove your baby. Nowadays, the technology is very advanced. During the operation, you will be given anesthesia so you won't feel any pain. Although the body will be painful for a while after the operation, it will be fine after resting for about a week. The main reason is that today's medical technology is already very advanced, and this type of surgery in large hospitals has been considered a minimally invasive surgery, so the harm to the body and the risk of surgery are not great.

Common problems after medical abortion

1. The degree of harm to the patient's body is the same, and repeated abortions can easily lead to infertility. Therefore, women must take good contraceptive measures and try not to have abortions. Relatively speaking, the two methods will have better effects, because medical abortion also requires curettage treatment.

2. After the abortion, you should carefully observe the bleeding condition. If the bleeding is heavy and lasts for a long time, you should take appropriate hemostatic drugs. After the abortion, women should pay attention to adjusting their body. It is best to rest in bed for three days.

It is explained very clearly which one is more harmful, surgical abortion or medical abortion. In fact, both surgical abortion and medical abortion will cause certain harm to women's body. However, in general, if the pregnancy does not exceed 39 days, doctors will recommend medical abortion. If the pregnancy has lasted for a long time, medical abortion is ineffective, and it is very easy to have an incomplete abortion, which will require a second curettage. The damage is always greater and it is better to have an abortion from the beginning.
