Many women who are 5 and a half months pregnant want to abort their babies through induced abortion. First of all, for pregnant women, if you want to abort the baby as soon as possible, it is better to do it early rather than late, because the fetus is too large and induced abortion will seriously affect the health of the pregnant woman. The following content introduces whether induced abortion is dangerous at 5 and a half months of pregnancy? You can learn about the specific dangers.

Is it dangerous to induce abortion after 5 months of pregnancy?

When a woman reaches the fifth month of pregnancy, she can have an induced abortion. However, due to the high risks of induced abortion, if the hospital you choose does not have good technology, or even an informal abortion hospital, your personal safety cannot be well guaranteed.

After the fifth month of pregnancy, the bones will harden, the fetus will grow a lot, and the placenta will be formed. As a result, the cervix will dilate during delivery. At the same time, because the uterus enlarges, the uterine wall becomes congested and softened, making it more difficult for women to undergo induced abortion surgery, and it is also easy to damage the uterine wall, resulting in an increase in postoperative complications. Therefore, induced abortion should be performed as early as possible.

Dietary principles after induced abortion:

(1) The first thing is to supplement protein. Protein is an important component of antibodies. If the intake is insufficient, the body's resistance will be reduced. Within half a month after painless induced abortion, you can eat more chicken, lean pork, eggs, milk, beans, and bean products.

(2) After an induced abortion, the patient is often prone to sweating due to physical weakness. Therefore, water should be replenished in small amounts and multiple times to reduce water evaporation; more water-soluble vitamins are excreted in sweat, especially vitamin C, vitamin B1, and vitamin B2, so you should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, which is also helpful in preventing constipation.

(3) Food choices should be both nutritious and easy to digest and absorb. Do not eat or eat less greasy, raw and cold food.

(4) On the basis of a normal diet, appropriately limit fat. Within one week after painless induced abortion, fat should be controlled at around 80 grams per day. People with menstrual disorders should avoid eating irritating foods, such as chili peppers, wine, vinegar, pepper, ginger, etc. Experts say that these foods can stimulate congestion of sexual organs and increase menstrual volume. They should also avoid eating cold foods such as crabs, snails, and clams.

Inducing labor at 5 and a half months of pregnancy will definitely be dangerous, so for many women who want to have an induced labor at this stage, they must choose a regular hospital for the operation. At the same time, after the operation, in order to better restore physical strength, they must have a good diet after the induced labor, supplement vitamins and proteins through diet, and rest themselves to better recover their bodies.
