Patient's question:
Does an abortion interfere with fertility? One of my friends has had two abortions and is now pregnant for the third time, but she doesn't really want to. If she has an abortion, will it affect her future childbirth? Her constitution is not very good. I want to know how suitable her condition is for an abortion.Doctor's answer:
You have two options for miscarriage: medication abortion and surgical abortion. Medication abortion is less harmful and is suitable for women under 35 who are pregnant within 49 days. It should be avoided for those with heart, liver, or kidney diseases, glaucoma, asthma, intrauterine devices during early pregnancy, or suspected ectopic pregnancy. Medication abortion requires a prolonged bleeding period. 80% of patients expel the fetal tissue within 6 hours of taking the medication, while 10% expel it within one week. It is recommended to take oral antibiotics or uterine contraction drugs after medication abortion. Do not share rooms or take baths for one month after medication abortion. MRI should be performed 8 to 15 days after medication abortion. Try to minimize the number of abortions, as it may interfere with the endocrine system and lead to infertility.
