Does induced abortion affect future fertility?

Patient's question:

My boyfriend has been in a relationship for over a year. He had an abortion once before, but due to circumstances, they haven't married yet. However, unfortunately, I am pregnant again now. If he has an abortion this time, it will be his second induced abortion. I would like to ask, does induced abortion affect future fertility?

Doctor's answer:

Abortion may potentially affect future fertility. There are many complications associated with abortion, which may cause harm to the uterine lining and affect embryo implantation. In severe cases, it may lead to situations such as uterine perforation, as well as tearing and infection. After an abortion, it is important to rest more, avoid strenuous exercise and overwork or overtime, to prevent the possibility of severe complications.
