Patient's question:
I am 25 years old. Previously, I had sex without protection, which resulted in pregnancy and a miscarriage. Now I have stomach pain and am not recovering well. Yesterday, I had sex again and am afraid of getting pregnant again. What are the procedures involved in an abortion?Doctor's answer:
The process of generally involves three steps: preoperative preparation, preoperative examinations, and the implementation of the procedure. Preoperative preparation mainly involves avoiding sexual activity one week before the surgery. The night before the surgery, do not defecate after 8 p.m. Preoperative examinations mainly include early pregnancy tests to confirm how the pregnancy occurred. General examinations include blood tests, urine tests, and an electrocardiogram (to check if the heart can tolerate anesthesia), as well as an ultrasound (to confirm the size of the early pregnancy, how the gestational sac is located in the uterine cavity, and whether there are any other abnormalities, and to schedule the surgery time). During the surgery, the embryo is completely removed from the uterus using surgery or medication. This is a critical step. In daily life, patients should balance their nutritional intake, engage in aerobic exercises to strengthen their bodies, and maintain a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and speed up recovery.
