How long does it take to have a painful abortion?

Since the invention of painless abortion, the number of people who use painful abortion has become very small. Although painful abortion does not take long, there will be pain during the process. Although this pain is not as severe as childbirth, it still has a certain impact on women. Therefore, many people choose painless abortion. How long does a painful abortion usually last?

Ordinary abortion refers to the operation to insert an air-pressure camera into the female vagina while the person is fully conscious. If the body is strong and has a low sensitivity to pain, it will feel similar to menstrual cramps. Ordinary abortion does not require anesthesia, and the actual process of removing the fetal sac is only 3 to 5 minutes.

The degree of pain during abortion surgery varies according to one's pain tolerance, but it is generally bearable. The operation time is short, about three minutes. Abortion is painful, and the pain is milder than the pain of childbirth. It is quite uncomfortable to gradually dilate the cervical canal during painful abortion. When the dilator enters the cervix, the pain and soreness are unbearable, and the negative pressure suction feels as painful as a knife. I believe that women who have undergone a painful abortion will never forget this feeling.

However, everyone's pain tolerance is different, and some women may feel that they can bear it and have no pain. So no matter what you feel, if you are not ready to have children, you should take good contraceptive measures on a regular basis. You can use tool contraceptives or intrauterine contraceptive rings or birth control pills. You cannot use abortion as a preventive measure against accidental pregnancy.

Common problems after abortion:

1. Pay attention to rest and improve nutrition. You should rest in bed for 2-3 days after the abortion, then you can get out of bed and move around, and gradually increase your activity level. Do not engage in heavy physical work or work in cold water within half a month after the abortion to avoid catching a cold. Pay attention to increasing nutrition, eat more fish, meat, eggs, beans and other protein-rich foods and fruits rich in vitamins to promote the repair of the uterine wall.

2. Keep the vulva clean and refrain from sexual intercourse. After an abortion, the cervix has not completely closed, and the uterine wall also has a repair process. During this period, you must pay attention to maintaining daily cleaning of the vulva, and wash and change sanitary napkins and underwear frequently. You do not need to take a bath in a tub within about half a month after the operation to prevent turbid water from entering the vagina and causing infection. If you have sex too soon after an abortion, it can easily lead to subacute endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and secondary infertility. Therefore, couples are prohibited from having sexual intercourse within one month after an abortion.

3. Observe the bleeding situation. If vaginal bleeding lasts for more than one week after abortion, or is even accompanied by lower abdominal pain, fever, turbid discharge with odor and other abnormal symptoms, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up examination in time.

4. Adhere to good contraceptive measures. After abortion, the functions of the uterus, ovaries and uterus gradually recover, and the uterus and ovaries ovulate on time. If you do not persist in taking contraceptive measures, you will get pregnant again soon. Therefore, after an abortion, a reliable contraceptive method should be chosen as soon as possible, and contraception should always be the main method. Abortion should not be used as a substitute for contraceptive sterilization surgery.
