What are the sequelae of medical abortion?

Unexpected pregnancies occur frequently in life, and many female friends will choose to use drugs to induce abortion. Of course, there are many ways of abortion, such as surgical abortion, painless abortion, and abortion, but the safest method is still the best to use painless abortion. However, what kind of sequelae will often be caused after medical abortion!

Many women choose medical abortion when they have an unexpected pregnancy, and many of them think that medical abortion is just like normal menstruation, which will not harm the body and does not require rest. That’s not actually the case. Medical abortion, like vacuum aspiration, will damage women's health to a certain extent. The following situations are more common:

1. Anemia

After a woman takes anti-pregnancy drugs, the gestational sac tissue in the uterine cavity may be discharged on the same day. Sometimes the pregnancy tissue is not completely discharged, the endometrium recovers poorly, and vaginal bleeding lasts longer, which may last for 2 to 3 weeks or even 1 to 2 months. Long-term chronic blood loss can cause anemia.

2. Infection

Long-term chronic blood loss may cause a decrease in the body's resistance. At this time, bacteria often move upward from the vagina and cause endometrial inflammation.

3. Menstrual disorders

Anti-pregnancy drugs can inhibit the function of the ovaries, affect the growth and development of follicles and even interfere with ovulation. Some women may experience menstrual disorders after medical abortion, which are manifested by shortened or prolonged menstrual cycles and increased menstrual flow.

4. Affect future pregnancy

If women of childbearing age experience repeated pregnancies and miscarriages, their endometrium will be repeatedly damaged. Because the endometrium is damaged, once they want to have a normal pregnancy, they are prone to placenta previa, which can cause heavy prenatal bleeding and even habitual miscarriage.

Therefore, medical abortion must be performed in a hospital with certain conditions, and anti-pregnancy drugs must be taken under the guidance of a doctor. Do not take drugs at home without authorization. If vaginal bleeding does not stop, you should go to the hospital for examination in time.

From the above article, we learned that there will be sequelae. This phenomenon will happen in most cases. Its lack will cause an adverse effect. It is very likely to cause the inability to conceive. Everyone should pay more attention to it.
