Is abortion painful? How long does it take?

Abortion is a way to save contraceptive failure, so everyone must remember not to use abortion as a contraceptive method. The best time for abortion is within nine weeks of pregnancy, and it must pass a formal examination. Only when the conditions for abortion are met can it be performed. With the continuous improvement of medical technology, painless abortion has appeared in front of everyone, thus solving the problem of pain in abortion. So, is abortion painful and how long does it take?

First, does abortion hurt and how long does it take? Generally speaking, the entire process of painless abortion takes about two to three hours. If we only count the time spent on the painless abortion surgery, it usually only takes about 3-5 minutes to complete. However, the two steps of preoperative examination and postoperative anti-inflammatory treatment take at least two to three hours. Therefore, the entire painless abortion process takes about 180 minutes to 240 minutes in total.

Second, early abortion is a common remedy for contraceptive failure. When the embryo is still relatively small, the uterus is not large, and the placenta has not yet formed, the pregnancy can be terminated using curettage or vacuum aspiration. So, when is the best time for an abortion? The best time for an abortion is generally before 9 weeks of pregnancy. However, to finally determine how long you can have an abortion, you also have 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.
