Does it hurt during the surgical procedure?

Patient's question:

Recently, I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend, and we didn't take any safety measures at the time. Now, I took a pregnancy test and found out that I'm pregnant. I want to consult about an abortion procedure and whether it's painful. I'm feeling extremely sad, but I definitely cannot have this child because we are both too young.

Doctor's answer:

If you get pregnant unexpectedly and consider an induced abortion, especially if you are experiencing severe pain, you can opt for a painless abortion. A painless abortion is performed while the patient is in a deep sleep under anesthesia, ensuring they feel no pain. The procedure typically takes about three to five minutes to complete. After the surgery, you will rest for a few minutes, and once you regain consciousness, you can go home. If you do not plan to conceive in the near future, it is best to use contraception to avoid unnecessary harm to yourself.
