Is it okay to have an abortion at six months?

Abortion is a way to end a woman's pregnancy, but you also need to pay attention to the month. Six months is past the best time for abortion for pregnant women. At this time, the only option is induced abortion, which is a forced termination surgical method. Abortion is impossible and will cause great danger. Therefore, if you do not want a child after six months, you must go to the hospital for examination in time. Even if you have an induced abortion, you must also prevent infection and other situations.

If the pregnancy exceeds 14 weeks, the above two types of artificial abortion cannot be performed, and hospitalization for induced abortion is required, which increases the pain of the pregnant woman and the risk of the operation. If the pregnancy is 14-24 weeks, the above method can no longer be used for abortion. If the pregnant woman must terminate the pregnancy at this time, she has to undergo induced labor.

Induction of labor is the injection of some drugs to terminate the pregnancy early, after which the pregnant woman delivers the fetus and placenta. The whole process is similar to normal delivery. If part of the placenta is stubborn and refuses to leave the uterus, a curettage must be performed in time.

If there is no uterine contraction 5 days after the injection of the drug, you can inject it again. If it is still unsuccessful, you can only perform a cesarean section to remove the fetus. People with acute infectious diseases, acute genital tract infections, acute or chronic liver and kidney diseases, and women with uterine scars are not suitable for induced abortion. The surgery may cause complications such as fever, birth canal injury, incomplete abortion, and infection.

Therefore, pregnant women who need artificial abortion should try to undergo vacuum aspiration surgery within 10 weeks of pregnancy to reduce the pain of the abortion.

Induced abortion can also cause certain harm to women. If you really want to have an induced abortion, you must take good care of yourself before and after the operation and be prepared in terms of nutrition, emotions, etc. Do not have sexual intercourse before the operation. After the operation, you should pay attention to keeping your private parts clean, eat more protein-rich foods, maintain an optimistic attitude, etc.
