Patient's question:
I've been married to my husband for two years, but we haven't been able to get pregnant successfully. Recently, we finally got pregnant, but at seven months, we had a thorough check-up and found that the baby had a deformity. So now we need to have a miscarriage and uterine curettage to terminate the pregnancy. Will the miscarriage and uterine curettage cause significant damage to the uterus?Doctor's answer:
The harm caused by post-abortion uterine scraping is relatively significant, as it can easily lead to thinning of the endometrium, anemia, or intrauterine infections. In these days, it's important to rest actively and enhance nutrition, and you can also promptly go to the hospital for a follow-up ultrasound to check the results. After an abortion, consuming foods that boost qi and regulate menstruation can help the body fully recover. It's also important not to have the habit of staying up late and to pay attention to bed rest.
