How many days are suitable for abortion?

Painless abortion after an unexpected pregnancy is a better way to terminate pregnancy. Some people like to choose medical abortion. In fact, whether it is medical abortion or artificial abortion, there is an optimal time. If the time is too early or too late, it will affect the health of the body and cause incomplete abortion. After the abortion operation, women must pay more attention to rest and try not to have sex.

When is the 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.

There are three common situations in which there is no vaginal bleeding the day after abortion:

1. The abortion operation was successful, all the embryonic tissue in the uterine cavity was sucked out, the uterus contracted well, the blood vessels were closed, and there was no obvious postoperative bleeding.

2. The abortion operation failed, the embryonic tissue was not sucked out, and the embryonic sac continued to develop. The uterus of some patients is in a special position, and it is not easy to explore the uterine cavity. During the abortion, the suction tube is not operated properly, resulting in leakage.

3. Complications of abortion surgery: adhesion of the uterine cavity and cervix, blocking the blood accumulation channel, and no blood flows out of the vagina.

The first situation is normal. The third situation is uterine congestion. Uterine congestion is often accompanied by symptoms such as lower abdominal distension and pain, low fever, and intrauterine infection. The doctor can feel the enlarged uterus through gynecological examination and the patient feels tenderness; B-ultrasound examination can show intrauterine fluid accumulation. Hematogenous uterine cavity can easily lead to serious consequences such as uterine cavity infection and pus accumulation. If you are really worried, you can go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination about 10 days after the abortion to learn more about the postoperative condition of the uterine cavity.
