Patient's question:
Accompanied a friend for an abortion surgery. Saw the doctor first gave her medicine, wanted to ask the doctor, why do you need to drink medicine before an abortion surgery?Doctor's answer:
Patients are usually required to take medication before an induced abortion procedure to soften the cervix. This ensures that the cervix is not too tight during the surgery, making it easier for the suction tube to enter the uterine cavity and facilitating surgical operation. However, this process may increase the risk of injury to the cervix.After an induced abortion, it is important to pay attention to personal care to prevent infection. If an infection occurs again after the procedure, it may lead to conditions such as endometritis or other gynecological infections, which can affect future menstruation and fertility.
