Abortion at 11 weeks of pregnancy

Every female friend has the possibility of getting pregnant after having sex, and accidents may still happen even if contraceptive measures are taken. Artificial abortion can cause great harm to the pregnant woman's body, so many people choose medical abortion. Many female friends who are pregnant and do not want a baby would like to know if they can use medical abortion if they want to have an abortion at 11 weeks of pregnancy? Here are some of the dangers of medical abortion.

1. Can I use medication to abort my pregnancy at 11 weeks?

Medical abortion cannot be performed during the 11th week of pregnancy, as 11 weeks of pregnancy has exceeded the maximum time limit for medical abortion. Medical abortion is a process in which the activity of progesterone in the body decreases after the use of drugs, causing miscarriage, and then the drugs are used to cause strong contractions of the uterus, forcing the gestational sac out of the body. Therefore, medical abortion is only suitable for terminating pregnancies within 49 days.

After female friends know the best time for medical abortion, they can increase the success rate of abortion. Many female friends think that medical abortion only requires taking medicine, but they ignore the best time for medical abortion. It may directly affect the final effect of medical abortion, and thus face the trouble of secondary abortion (uterine curettage). Medical abortion is only suitable for early intrauterine pregnancy within 49 days. The average diameter of the gestational sac shown by B-ultrasound examination is less than 2.3 cm.

The best time to have an abortion (artificial abortion) is within 10 weeks of pregnancy. Because the fetus is just beginning to develop and the intrauterine tissue is relatively simple at this time, the abortion surgery will be safer and the recovery after surgery will be faster. When female friends consider how long they should be pregnant before having an abortion, they must also be clear about which type of abortion surgery they want to choose.

The patient must be pregnant within 49 days of menopause and must be under 34 years old. The best time to induce abortion with medication is within 49 days after pregnancy, and avoid exceeding 3 months. If it exceeds 3 months, the fetus will have already formed and grown too large, and induced labor is the only option. The time to pregnancy is not calculated from the time of sexual intercourse.

2. How harmful is medical abortion?

1. It is easy to cause inflammation and infection: Since the embryonic sac tissue in the uterine cavity can be discharged on the same day after medical abortion, sometimes the pregnancy tissue is not completely discharged, the uterine membrane is not restored well, and the vaginal bleeding time is longer, which can last for 2-3 weeks or even 1-2 months. Long-term chronic blood loss can cause anemia and reduce the body's resistance. At this time, bacteria often travel back through the vagina and cause inflammation of the endometrium.

2. Inducing habitual miscarriage: A failed abortion experience and multiple abortion experiences may seriously damage the woman's uterus and have a great impact on her future pregnancy. It can cause repeated damage to the endometrium, placenta previa, and heavy prenatal bleeding. Some women also experience habitual miscarriage due to multiple artificial abortions.

3. Cause infertility: Medical abortion can easily lead to fallopian tube blockage and cervical adhesion, causing infertility. Incomplete medical abortion and improper uterine curettage surgery may also cause infertility. Medical abortion causes excessive damage to the uterus and ovaries, and is therefore one of the causes of infertility.

4. Side effects of medical abortion: In addition to gastrointestinal reactions such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, prolonged bleeding and heavy bleeding are the main side effects of medical abortion. Drug treatment is ineffective, and uterine curettage is required when necessary. Medical abortion must be performed in a medical institution with regular rescue conditions.
