Patient's question:
A 29-year-old woman, I am 9 months pregnant. Since last week, I have noticed blood stains in my underwear, and sometimes my stomach also hurts. After checking at the hospital, they said there is a possibility of miscarriage. I am really worried now. Please ask: What should I pay attention to before having an abortion surgery?Doctor's answer:
The best time for induced abortion: If you become pregnant but do not wish to conceive, it is best to undergo induced abortion within 10 weeks. As the gestational age increases, the risk of surgical complications also increases, so do not wait until the early pregnancy stage is advanced to have an abortion. One week before the induced abortion surgery, avoid sexual activity. On the day before the surgery, take a bath and change your clothes to prevent catching a cold or getting sick. Make sure to prepare adequately and wear underwear and outerwear that are easy to put on and take off.
