Can women with cervical erosion have an abortion under anesthesia?

Patient's question:

A while ago, I went to a class reunion and drank quite a bit. I went home with an old classmate. Unexpectedly, I got pregnant. I didn't dare tell my husband and wanted to secretly have an abortion. However, I have had cervical erosion for a long time and wanted to consult if it's possible to have an abortion with cervical erosion.

Doctor's answer:

It is possible to have an abortion without pain even with cervical erosion. However, the surgery may potentially damage the cervix and the endometrium, leading to secondary infections that could affect future fertility. At your age, you might not want to have children anymore, so you can decide to have an abortion. After the procedure, it is important to recover properly and take anti-inflammatory medication to prevent infections. Sexual activity is strictly prohibited for one month to avoid catching a cold. Cervical erosion is usually physiological, but it can be difficult to distinguish from cervical epithelial inflammation on the surface, so a thorough check-up for cervical aging is necessary.
