Patient's question:
My best friend is already 27 years old this year. Before she was married to her current husband, she had an abortion and didn't want to have a child. She didn't dare tell you about her husband, but recently her husband accompanied her for an ultrasound. She is a bit worried, so she wants to ask the doctor if an ultrasound can detect whether she has had an abortion.Doctor's answer:
Your best friend has a history of one induced abortion. Generally, through a thorough ultrasound examination, it should not be detected. For those who have had an induced abortion, it is mainly identified by reviewing medical history. If the recovery after the induced abortion is not complete, leading to significant inflammation, this situation may be considered to be caused by the induced abortion. In this case, it is mainly identified through a vaginal speculum examination to find the cause. Generally, through an ultrasound examination, it should not be detected.
