Placenta picture after abortion

Those who have not experienced the pain of childbirth will never understand what pregnant women are going through. Some people will say things like "childbirth is just a short-term pain".

But in ancient times, giving birth was like crossing a Naihe Bridge for women. In the past, when medicine was not well developed, facing these things would most likely result in two deaths.

In addition to the risks of childbirth that we often hear about, there is another risk that we don't often hear about, but is extremely painful, which is manual removal of the embryo.

What is the whole process of manual placental removal and childbirth like?

Under normal circumstances, the embryo will naturally fall out of the pregnant woman's body within fifteen to twenty minutes after the baby is born. If the embryo does not fall out naturally after the time is up, the doctor will inject the pregnant woman with drugs to help the embryo give birth.

If the injection of drugs still cannot induce the fetus to be delivered by the pregnant woman, the doctor will intervene by manually removing the placenta.

The first step is that the doctor needs to determine the location of the embryo: To determine the location of the embryo, the doctor needs to reach into the pregnant woman's uterus and search for the location of the embryo by feeling. This whole process requires the doctor to put his entire hand in to search, and the pain is obvious.

The second step is to manually separate the embryo after finding it: After finding the location of the embryo, the doctor needs to manually separate the placenta. This process is more painful than inserting the hand deep into the uterus. It is separating flesh from flesh. That kind of pain is not simply tearing off the skin stuck with 502 glue.

Just seeing the photos makes one break out in a cold sweat.

The third step is to remove the embryo: the embryo cannot stay in the pregnant woman's body for too long, which will affect the pregnant woman's physical and mental health. The separated embryo should be removed from the pregnant woman's body as soon as possible.

The fourth step is to confirm whether there are any residual embryos in the uterus again: After the embryo is removed, the whole hand should be put in again to confirm whether there are any residual embryos in the body. This is for the health of the pregnant woman, so even if it is painful, you have to endure it to avoid a series of inconveniences later.

The fifth step is to gently press the pregnant woman's abdomen: After checking all the body parts, you need to gently press the pregnant woman's abdomen, so that the uterus can recover as soon as possible.

Of course, this is not the pain that every pregnant woman will experience when giving birth, just like dystocia, it only happens in a very small number of cases.
