How harmful is the first abortion?

Some couples do not take effective protective measures during sexual intercourse, which may lead to pregnancy in some women. However, due to limited ability at this time, many people will choose to go to the hospital for artificial abortion. However, artificial abortion is very harmful to women's uterus, especially for the first time, there will be many risks. Let’s take a look at how harmful the first abortion is.

The first major hazard is bacterial infection: unsanitary surgical environment and incomplete disinfection of instruments may lead to intrauterine infection. In addition, if women do not pay attention to hygiene or are eager to have sexual intercourse after surgery, it may also cause infection. In severe cases, it may cause gynecological inflammation or even infertility in the future.

The second biggest harm is that it can easily lead to infertility: if the number of abortions is too many, it is likely to cause female infertility. According to relevant reports, the probability of infertility after abortion is as high as 10%, which may be related to reasons such as postoperative adhesion of the cervix and uterine cavity, postoperative disorder of fallopian tube motility, and endometrial damage caused by excessive suction and scraping.

The third biggest hazard is cervical injury: during the operation, if the cervical opening dilates too quickly, it may cause cervical injury and affect the woman's future fertility.

The fourth major hazard is uterine perforation: the longer the gestational age, the higher the risk, the more miscarriages, and the greater the probability of perforation. Other conditions such as abnormal uterine position or shape or previous uterine surgery (such as cesarean section or myomectomy) increase the chance of perforation.

The fifth major hazard is incomplete abortion: Incomplete abortion can easily occur. If the doctor lacks experience or there are mistakes during the operation, a small amount of fetal tissue may remain in the woman's uterus. If vaginal bleeding does not stop as a result, a curettage may be required, causing secondary damage to women.

The sixth major hazard is massive bleeding: Improper abortion surgery may cause massive bleeding. If the amount of bleeding during the operation exceeds 200 ml, it may cause hemorrhagic shock and hemorrhagic anemia. In severe cases, it may be life-threatening!

The seventh major harm is psychological trauma: In addition to causing harm to women's bodies, abortion may also cause psychological trauma, resulting in negative emotions such as fear, anxiety, and psychological disorders, which in turn affect normal life. Those with weak tolerance may cast a shadow on their future marriage.

Note:

Repeated abortions cause great harm to women, so female friends should learn to protect themselves, choose the correct contraceptive method, keep themselves clean, and don't wait until an unexpected pregnancy to regret it.
