Patient's question:
What tests need to be done before an abortion? Can the surgery be performed immediately after the tests are completed? How long does the surgery take?Doctor's answer:
After getting pregnant, if you don't want to keep it, you may consider an induced abortion. Before the surgery, you need to have thorough and careful examinations. First, you need to have a careful ultrasound examination to diagnose an intrauterine pregnancy. If the diagnosis is an intrauterine pregnancy, you need to choose surgery and have a complete blood count, blood type, and coagulation four tests. You also need to have liver and kidney function tests, as well as tests for infectious diseases. Additionally, you need to have a urinalysis and an electrocardiogram. If no abnormalities are found, the surgery can proceed. A regular induced abortion can be done directly, and the surgery time is not long. Once you are prepared, it can be completed in about 2/3 minutes.
