Abdominal pain after abortion

Many women choose to have an abortion to solve the problem when they have an unexpected pregnancy. However, some women choose small clinics or unreliable hospitals for abortion. They often experience abdominal pain after the operation and are also very worried. So, what is the reason for stomach pain after abortion? The following answers to the following questions are introduced in detail for everyone.

Experts point out that women will experience abdominal pain within two to three days after an abortion, but this is a physiological abdominal pain and will not last too long. If it lasts too long, it means that there is something wrong with the body. The common causes of abdominal pain after an abortion are as follows:

(1) Incomplete abortion: Incomplete abortion means that the embryonic tissue in the uterine cavity is not completely removed during the artificial abortion process. In order to expel these residual embryonic tissues, the uterus will contract intermittently after the operation, accompanied by severe intermittent abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. The blood is bright red and may be mixed with large blood clots.

(2) Intrauterine hemorrhage: Intrauterine hemorrhage is more common within a few hours after abortion. The patient will feel unbearable abdominal pain and a small amount of vaginal bleeding. Examination of the patient's uterus may show that it is significantly enlarged, tender, and soft.

(3) Uterine perforation: If a woman undergoes an improper abortion, it is very easy to cause a serious complication such as uterine perforation. Once uterine perforation occurs, severe abdominal pain suddenly occurs, there is vaginal bleeding, uterine perforation is not likely to occur again within one year of cesarean section, and the position of the uterus is excessively tilted. There is a high incidence rate among women who have undergone multiple abortions.

(4) Postoperative infection: If the disinfection during the operation is not strict or the patient does not pay attention to hygiene after the operation, it is most likely to cause infection. The patient's pain symptoms are persistent and may be accompanied by increased secretions, fever and other symptoms.
