Patient's question:
I am 26 years old. I didn't use protection before having sex, which led to pregnancy and a miscarriage. Now I have stomach pain and am not recovering well. I had sex again yesterday and am afraid of getting pregnant again. What are the possible complications after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
The flow of people is divided into medication-induced abortion and surgical miscarriage. Medication-induced abortion is prone to incomplete abortion, while surgical miscarriage can lead to complications such as infection, uterine hematoma, severe bleeding, amniotic fluid embolism, uterine perforation, and cervical laceration. Later on, chronic pelvic inflammation, uterine fibroids, and menstrual irregularities may also occur as sequelae. During daily life, proper breastfeeding should be maintained to prevent unintended pregnancy. If a surgical miscarriage is necessary, it must be decided at a regular hospital and both parties must cooperate with treatment to minimize the risks of miscarriage. Patients should develop a regular lifestyle, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to enhance their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
