Patient's question:
At 21, will having an abortion affect future fertility? I'm not married, and I had sex with my boyfriend. The contraception measures weren't properly taken, and I accidentally got pregnant.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you mentioned, undergoing an abortion may carry the risk of secondary infertility. It is recommended that you communicate with your boyfriend and his family to decide whether to get married and have the child. If you are not ready to have a child for the time being, it is best to visit a high-level, reputable hospital for a thorough check-up before undergoing an abortion. After the abortion, you should not have sexual intercourse within the first half month, and it is essential to remember to take contraceptive measures afterward.
