What harm does abortion do to the body?

According to incomplete statistics, the number of abortions among women in my country is on the rise. Some are due to unhealthy fetuses, and some are accidental pregnancies without contraception. In the end, they can only choose abortion. Abortion is extremely harmful to women's bodies. So, what harm does abortion do to the body? Below we will introduce the knowledge about abortion in detail.

1. Prone to Inflammation and Infection

After medical abortion, the embryonic sac tissue in the uterine cavity can be discharged on the same day. Sometimes the pregnancy tissue is not completely discharged, the uterine membrane is not restored well, and the vaginal bleeding lasts for a long time, which may last for 2-3 weeks or even 1-2 months. 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, and you must be hospitalized immediately for curettage and cleaning. If you are not rescued in time, your life will be in danger.

3. Cause habitual miscarriage

Since medical abortion is less thorough, incomplete abortion may require further surgical treatment, which can cause repeated damage to the endometrium, placenta previa, heavy prenatal bleeding, or habitual abortion.

4. Dysmenorrhea

Some women may experience dysmenorrhea or worsening 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.

5. Cause 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.

The above is a detailed introduction to the harm of miscarriage to the body. The harm caused by miscarriage is very great. In mild cases, it will hurt the body, and in severe cases, it will lead to infertility. Therefore, for female friends, they must ensure their own safety.
