How many mm of gestational sac can be used for abortion

There are more and more incidents of unexpected pregnancies in life because the relationships between people are becoming more and more open. After entering puberty, some teenagers become more and more curious about sex. Parents in our country do not pay much attention to sex education, which will cause some lost teenagers to have unexpected pregnancies in the process of exploring sex. Because they do not have enough ability to support the fetus, they can only choose to have an abortion. So, at how many mm of gestational sac can an abortion be performed?

At what mm does the gestational sac need to be to have an abortion?

Generally, you can have an abortion if the gestational sac is larger than 10 mm, but the best time to have an abortion is around 49 days of pregnancy, when the gestational sac may reach about 20*30 mm. At this time, the gestational sac is not very small, so it is not easy to miss suction, nor is it very large. The larger the gestational sac, the greater the risk of surgery. Moreover, the uterine cavity is too large, so it may not be completely suctioned out in one go, and uterine curettage is required.

Best time for abortion

The best time for abortion is generally before 9 weeks of pregnancy. However, to finally determine how long you can have an abortion, you also need to refer to some preoperative examination results. However, if the embryo is too large, or even has grown bones, it cannot be sucked out with the largest straw. In this case, you can only be hospitalized and induce labor with drugs or water bags, and then have the uterus cleaned after the embryo and most of the placenta are expelled.

If induction of labor fails, curettage is needed, which is to use an instrument to directly scrape the embryo and placenta out of the uterus. This operation is risky and can easily cause cervical injury and increased bleeding during the operation. It also increases the risk of infection, uterine injury, and postoperative intrauterine adhesions. Therefore, if you plan to terminate an unexpected pregnancy, try to do it within 2 months of pregnancy.

The above introduces the relevant content about how many mm of gestational sac is required for abortion. In short, you should rest in bed for 2-3 days after the abortion, avoid heavy physical labor or working in cold water within half a month to avoid catching cold, and eat more protein and vitamin-rich foods. I hope this article can help you.
