What is the best time for abortion surgery?

Generally speaking, the best time for abortion is 6 to 7 weeks of pregnancy. And generally the time for abortion should be determined before 9 weeks of pregnancy, because if the embryo develops too large or even grows bones, it will be impossible to extract it. However, the actual time for abortion will vary depending on the physical condition and pregnancy status of each pregnant woman. Generally speaking, early abortion surgery is a more common contraceptive measure. Because the embryo is relatively small at this time and the uterus is not large, the embryo is not produced.

The best time for abortion is about 9 weeks before pregnancy, but you must prepare well before the operation and clarify the pregnancy period. The best time for medical abortion cannot guarantee a 100% success rate. Generally, the success rate of medical abortion is only 75%. If a woman performs a medical abortion at home without the guidance of a doctor, the 75% success rate may be greatly affected.

Medical abortion is assisted by mifepristone. However, since it is not easy for the decidua to be discharged at the same time after abortion, it is easy to cause incomplete medical abortion, and ultimately surgical curettage is still required. In addition, medical abortion is prone to infection due to prolonged vaginal bleeding, and is more likely to cause endometritis and salpingitis than painless abortion, leading to secondary infertility. It should be noted that medical abortion requires professional medical staff to help observe the fetus and bleeding during the abortion process. Oral medications may cause discomfort, etc., which need to be handled properly. Therefore, medical abortion cannot be performed at home on your own.

If the test tube embryo is very large, even when it has grown bones, it cannot be extracted with a large plastic straw. At this time, you can only be hospitalized for induction of labor with drugs or water bags, and then perform a uterine cleaning operation after the test tube embryo and most of the embryo are discharged.

If the induced abortion operation is unsuccessful, it is necessary to rely on forceps curettage, which is to use instruments to immediately scrape out the test tube embryo and the embryonic uterus. The operation is very risky. It is easy to cause cervical damage and increased bleeding during the operation, and it also increases the risk of infection, uterine damage, and postoperative intrauterine adhesions. Therefore, if an unmarried woman plans to terminate the pregnancy, it is best to do so within 2 months of pregnancy.
