Patient's question:
Because of improper contraception, I got pregnant unexpectedly. I haven't made up my mind yet, but I want this child, so I'm considering an abortion. However, I feel extremely reluctant, and I want to consult if I will see the fetus during the abortion. I'm really panicked.Doctor's answer:
After an abortion, the fetus can be kept by the woman herself, and she can also determine the gender of the fetus. It can also be returned to the hospital for further treatment. After undergoing an abortion procedure, sexual activity should be avoided for at least one month. It is important to rest for two weeks and undergo a follow-up ultrasound. Maintain good hygiene and cleanliness of the external genitalia. Avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods. If there is excessive bleeding and abdominal pain, seek medical attention promptly. In addition to treatment, it is important to maintain a light diet and a positive mood. Only with a good mindset and adequate sleep can you recover quickly from the illness.
