Patient's question:
I have a friend who got pregnant accidentally while having sex with her boyfriend. They haven't gotten married yet, and she's considering having an abortion. However, she's feeling upset and worried about the potential harm it could cause to her body. Is it a good idea to have an abortion, and will it harm her health?Doctor's answer:
Unintended pregnancy is quite common, and in early cases, women often choose to have an abortion. This can be done through methods such as medication abortion or surgical abortion. While an abortion is not good for the body, it can sometimes cause certain injuries, especially if a woman has had a previous abortion, which may affect future pregnancies. It is recommended that your friend think carefully about their decision. After choosing to have an abortion at a regular hospital, it is important to rest and recover properly, which should not cause significant harm to the body. In the future, it is important to practice effective contraception.
