Can taking medication for abortion three times lead to infertility?

Patient's question:

Every time I have sex with my boyfriend, my man doesn't mind using contraception, so it led to me getting pregnant unintentionally. I have had three medication abortions. Will having three medication abortions cause infertility?

Doctor's answer:

Medical abortion, although it causes relatively minor harm to a woman's uterus, can trigger significant imbalances in her endocrine system. Excessive use of medical abortion may not only affect future fertility but also increase the likelihood of recurring gynecological infections. When a woman takes anti-pregnancy drugs, the gestational sac tissue in the uterine cavity can be expelled within the same day. Sometimes, if the early pregnancy tissue is not fully expelled, the uterine lining does not regenerate properly, which may lead to prolonged bleeding.
