Abdominal cramps after abortion

Women must think carefully before choosing an abortion, because abortion is very harmful to the female body. If the uterus is damaged accidentally, it may cause lifelong infertility. And after the abortion, you should also pay close attention to your physical condition. If any physical problems occur, you should go to the hospital for examination in time. Is it normal for a woman to experience abdominal cramping after an abortion?

(1) Incomplete abortion: Abortion is not 100% successful and sometimes fails. In the case of incomplete abortion, abdominal pain will occur. In this case, a uterine curettage should be performed in time to scrape out the residual embryonic tissue in the uterine cavity. This will eliminate the abdominal pain. At the same time, attention should be paid to strengthening anti-inflammatory treatment after the operation to prevent infection.

(2) Postoperative infection: This is one of the more common complications after abortion. Postoperative infection can be caused directly by the surgical operation or by not paying attention to postoperative care. For example, premature sexual intercourse and swimming can lead to infection. When infected with acute pelvic inflammatory disease, severe abdominal pain may occur, so it is important to seek medical treatment in time.

(3) Uterine perforation: This is a serious complication of abortion. Severe abdominal pain may occur during perforation, but a small number of women do not feel any obvious pain. Of course, the incidence of uterine perforation is generally low. It often occurs in women whose uterus is excessively tilted or who become pregnant again within one year of a cesarean section, as well as in women who have undergone multiple abortions frequently.

(4) Intrauterine hemorrhage: This condition can also cause unbearable abdominal pain, but it usually occurs within a few hours after surgery. In fact, the number of people who experience this condition is very small. It is mainly common in women whose uterus is overly tilted and whose cervix is ​​too tight.

There are many reasons for abdominal cramps after abortion. The above are the possible reasons. These situations are very harmful to health. Therefore, if abdominal pain occurs on the fourth day after surgery, it is very likely due to unsuccessful surgery or some postoperative complications. Therefore, it is recommended to see a doctor for examination in time so that it can be treated in time to avoid causing greater impact on your health.
