Will abortion cause endometrium thinning?

Many people may not be fully aware of the dangers of abortion. After an abortion, a woman's endometrium will be damaged. For first-time pregnant women, it is best not to choose abortion. The endometrium protects the fetus. If the endometrium is too thin, it is likely to lead to miscarriage during the next pregnancy. This is also one of the causes of habitual miscarriage. This article introduces the specific situation, let’s take a look.

1. Will the endometrium become thinner after miscarriage?

The endometrium will be damaged after abortion. Multiple abortions will damage the endometrium and cause the endometrium to become thinner. Therefore, try to take contraceptive measures to avoid abortion. Pay attention to maintenance and hygiene, and most of the time it will recover in about three months. Please don't worry, as time goes by, the endometrium will slowly recover. During this period, you must develop good living habits, don't stay up late, eat regularly, and eat more soy products.

2. What to do if the endometrium becomes thinner after abortion

Generally speaking, after the first menstruation after abortion, you should do B-ultrasound to check the recovery of the endometrium. If it grows to 8MM, it is normal. If not, you can take appropriate estrogen supplementation under the guidance of a doctor for treatment. There are also the following two methods:

First use laparoscopy to check whether there is intrauterine adhesion.

If so, surgery must be used to remove adhesions. If the endometrium is still thin after removing the adhesions, some estrogen will be used to promote the growth of the endometrium (the androgen used in general medical treatment will not have any effect on the body). If the intrauterine adhesion is not an endocrine problem, then we use hormones to adjust it, and the dosage of estrogen and progesterone should be appropriate, so as to increase the thickness of the endometrium.

If the thickness of the endometrium after abortion is within the normal range, women do not need to worry too much as long as they have regular menstruation. Abortion surgery can cause certain damage to the endometrium. Therefore, women should pay attention to contraception to reduce the damage of abortion to the endometrium. If an abortion is to be performed, it must be done in a formal manner to minimize the damage.
