Patient's question:
A woman is 26 years old this year. My boyfriend and I just got married, and we had sex recently with safe measures in place. However, I don't know what happened, but I ended up pregnant. I want to have an abortion. Could you please tell me what the process of an abortion procedure is like?Doctor's answer:
First, the external genitalia are sterilized, then a double examination is performed for a thorough check, a vaginal speculum is inserted, and a probe is used to measure the depth of the vagina. A dilator is then used to open the cervix, after which a catheter is inserted into the uterine cavity to begin aspiration. Subsequently, a is used to scrape the uterine cavity, and the procedure is then completed. Nowadays, most procedures are performed under anesthesia, so before the surgery, anesthesia is administered, and the patient falls asleep. When they wake up, the surgery is already over.
