What should you pay attention to when inducing labor at three and a half months?

Most women who get pregnant unexpectedly or don't want to have a baby too early usually choose induced abortion between three to three and a half months. So why did they choose to induce labor during this time period? Is it following the normal rules of the masses, or is there some mystery in between? What should you pay attention to when induced abortion is performed at three and a half months of pregnancy? Please read the short introduction below to find these answers.

Induced labor refers to a situation where, after a pregnancy has lasted for more than three months, the fetus is too large to be terminated by vacuum aspiration and surgery is required. Induced labor is the only solution, and this surgery is painful and causes greater harm to the body. The earlier the painless induced abortion is performed, the simpler it is, the better the effect will be, and the recovery time of the operation will be shorter. Generally speaking, pregnancies of more than three months require mid-term painless induced abortion, and women need to be hospitalized. The method of inducing labor to precipitate pregnancy during the 12th to 24th week of pregnancy is called mid-trimester induction of labor. The characteristics of this period are that the placenta has been formed, the fetus is larger, the bones have hardened, and the cervix must be fully dilated to deliver the fetus.

Things to note after induction of labor:

1. Sexual intercourse is prohibited within three months, because the uterus has not yet fully recovered and the cervix is ​​loose, which can easily bring bacteria into the body after intercourse and cause pelvic inflammatory disease and adnexitis. Moreover, it is very easy to get pregnant after having sex after an abortion, but once you get pregnant, it will be difficult to have another abortion, and the slightest mistake may cause uterine perforation.

2. After an abortion, the body will be weak and the kidneys will be deficient, so you should pay attention to maintenance in terms of diet and clothing. Some people continue to wear high heels after an abortion for the sake of beauty, which results in heel pain.

3. After an abortion, do not sleep in a supine position all the time. Turn over more often to avoid causing the uterus to tilt retroverted and thus avoid low back pain.

4. After abortion, you should stay in bed to rest and take proper care of yourself. Some women feel good about themselves after an abortion, so they use their holidays to do housework or go out for fun, which results in many sequelae such as tenosynovitis, dry and sore eyes, and arthritis. So, you need to take a good rest during this period.
