Itchy lower body after abortion

Whether before or after an abortion, female friends should pay special attention to their bodies, because you need to be fully prepared mentally before having an abortion. After an abortion, women need to make adequate preparations for physical recovery. Therefore, female friends should always pay attention to their lower body conditions after abortion to avoid gynecological diseases caused by abortion. So what is the reason for lower body itching after abortion?

If the vulva itches immediately after an abortion, it may be caused by blood flowing out of the vagina after the abortion, which irritates the vulva. Failure to change sanitary pads frequently is also a reason. At this time, you can wash the vulva with clean water. In addition, changing sanitary napkins every one to two hours can relieve itching. Some women also experience itching and abnormal leucorrhea after the bleeding stops after an abortion. This may be due to vaginal inflammation caused by reduced resistance of the female body, or it may be caused by vaginal inflammation before the abortion. In this case, you need to do a routine leucorrhea test first, and then take oral or vaginal medications according to the type of vaginitis.

The dangers of abortion should be carefully understood

First, complications of abortion

During the painless abortion process, it is very likely that bacteria from the vagina or cervix will invade the uterus, causing intrauterine infection. Some cases may also result in heavy bleeding and uterine perforation due to the doctor's lack of experience or operational errors. If the abortion is not thorough, it is likely to cause vaginal bleeding complications, and in severe cases it may affect life safety.

Second, infection

Abortion surgery has very high requirements for the medical environment. If the medical equipment is not disinfected properly or the operating environment does not meet the standards, the patient may be infected during the operation.

In addition, if the patient does not pay attention to hygiene after the operation, it may cause postoperative infection and trigger gynecological inflammation such as pelvic inflammatory disease.

Third, sequelae of abortion

After painless abortion surgery, there is a high possibility of sequelae of cervical or uterine cavity adhesions.

Fourth, irregular menstruation

Menstrual irregularity is the most common consequence of painless abortion. After the abortion, ovulation and corpus luteum function may be affected, which can easily cause menstrual irregularity, leading to menstrual cycle disorders, scanty menstruation or prolonged menstruation.

5. Infertility

After multiple painless abortions, the endometrium will suffer a certain degree of damage. If the endometrium is too thin, habitual miscarriage or infertility may easily occur even if pregnancy occurs. In addition, various infections caused by abortion surgery may also cause gynecological inflammation, which will lead to normal conception and cause infertility.

6. Anesthesia Accidents

Standard painless abortion has very high requirements for anesthetic drugs, including onset and metabolic rate. If the operation is not performed properly, it is likely to cause unexpected anesthetic effects such as respiratory depression, circulatory depression, and drug reactions.
