Patient's question:
Last Saturday, after I had sex with my boyfriend, my period hasn't come. What should I pay attention to for an induced abortion?Doctor's answer:
If your menstrual cycle is usually regular, and this time your period hasn't arrived for more than a week, the possibility of pregnancy is relatively high. You can use early pregnancy test strips for a quick check, or blood HCG testing for more accuracy. Before an induced abortion, an ultrasound is required to confirm if the pregnancy is intrauterine. If you decide to have an induced abortion, it is usually performed under anesthesia. Do not eat dinner the night before and avoid drinking water before going to the hospital. Regulate your physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
