Patient's question:
Hello, I am still studying. Out of curiosity and with my boyfriend, I ate the forbidden fruit, and because I didn't know how to breastfeed, I got pregnant. Now I am about forty days pregnant and plan to have an abortion surgery this weekend. I know nothing about this and dare not ask others. I would like to ask what to pay attention to before an abortion surgery? What are the precautions? What kind of help do you need: what to pay attention to before an abortion surgery?Doctor's answer:
Preoperative preparation for an abortion procedure:The patient needs to take a warm bath the night before the procedure and change into clean underwear and pants.
On the day of the procedure, it is recommended to wear loose pants. The patient should bring their own sanitary pads.
Avoid sexual activity for one week before the procedure.
If undergoing a painless abortion procedure, the patient must fast and avoid drinking water for about 6 hours before the surgery.
Before the procedure, the patient will be given misoprostol orally, which helps soften the cervix, increase tension, and enhance intrauterine effects, thereby reducing the risk of cervical damage and adhesion.
Additional gynecological examinations, including a urine early pregnancy test, ultrasound, blood tests, and other routine checks, are required before the procedure.
