Is medical abortion harmful to women?

The answer is without a doubt, medical abortion can cause great harm to women's bodies. After medical abortion, it is not only easy to cause infection of the tissues in the uterus. It will also lead to low immunity of the body, thus inducing the occurrence of various gynecological diseases. If medical abortion is ineffective, a uterine curettage surgery may be required to clear the blood clots in the uterus, but it can also easily lead to infertility in women.

1. Bacterial infection: After medical abortion, the embryonic sac tissue in the uterine cavity is mostly discharged on the same day. Some patients may encounter incomplete discharge of pregnancy tissue and poor restoration of the uterine membrane, which will cause vaginal bleeding for a long time. Long-term irregular bleeding after medical abortion can cause chronic anemia, reduce the body's resistance, and easily cause bacterial infection.

2. Cause heavy bleeding: The disadvantage of medical abortion is that it can easily lead to incomplete abortion. The residual fetal membrane tissue can cause hemorrhage and heavy bleeding. In this case, you must be admitted to the hospital immediately for curettage and cleaning. If you are not rescued in time, your life will be in danger.

4. Symptoms causing dysmenorrhea: Some women will experience dysmenorrhea or aggravated symptoms after medical abortion, with crampy or persistent pain in the lower abdomen during menstruation, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, back pain, breast swelling, and even fainting in severe cases.

6. Affecting fertility and causing infertility: Medical abortion can easily lead to blockage of the fallopian tubes and cervical adhesions, causing infertility; Medical abortion can cause excessive damage to the uterus and ovaries, which is also one of the causes of infertility.
