Can I abort a six-month pregnancy? What should I pay attention to?

Although pregnancy is the dream of most women, due to various reasons, some women cannot give birth to the baby after pregnancy, and the only option is abortion. The general view on the Internet is that it is difficult to have an abortion during the sixth month of pregnancy. The statement that abortion is not allowed in the sixth month of pregnancy is incorrect, but there is still the best time to have an abortion. If it is too late, it will not be conducive to miscarriage.

1. Can I have an abortion at six months of pregnancy?

Generally speaking, only fetuses within three months of pregnancy can undergo curettage (artificial abortion), and those over three months can only undergo induced labor. The damage caused by induced labor to the endometrium directly affects future fertility. It will damage the base of the endometrium, making it easy for implantation to occur during future pregnancy. If you don't want it, you should do it as soon as possible. The larger the fetus, the greater the damage. It usually takes one month to recover after induced labor. After induced labor, you should pay attention to nutrition, rest, and avoid spicy or cold food and drinks.

2. What should you pay attention to after induced abortion

Traditional medicine believes that the weakness, paleness, back pain, and fatigue that often occur after an abortion are caused by damage to both Qi and blood. Indeed, miscarriage can cause blood loss, and pain and tension can damage Qi. People will be more sensitive to the damage caused by miscarriage as they get older, and it often takes a longer time to replenish both Qi and blood.

When it comes to nourishing qi and blood, there are many traditional dietary therapy methods worth learning from, such as astragalus, donkey-hide gelatin, brown sugar, jujube, glutinous rice, japonica rice, old chicken, ginger, spinach, black plum, etc., all of which have extraordinary effects of astringing and stopping bleeding, nourishing qi and blood. In addition, pork, animal liver, and blood tofu also have the effect of replenishing iron and producing blood. At the same time, adequate intake of vitamin C can increase the efficiency of iron absorption and utilization. Therefore, you need to pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables in your diet.
