How many times can an abortion be performed?

Patient's question:

Two months ago, I just had a miscarriage, and this month my period is delayed by a week. Can I have an artificial abortion?

Doctor's answer:

If there is sexual activity after a miscarriage, and the menstrual period is currently delayed, it is necessary to have a thorough examination to clarify how pregnancy occurred. It is preferable to conduct a blood test for diagnosis. After the diagnosis, symptomatic treatment should be provided. Generally, it is recommended that induced abortion or medication abortion should not exceed three times. More than three times carries a high risk of pregnancy, making it easy to lead to thinning of the endometrium, uterine adhesions, and even the risk of secondary infertility. If you still do not want to get pregnant, it is important to take effective contraceptive measures.
