How to handle the fetus after an induced abortion?

Patient's question:

This morning, my wife went to the hospital for an abortion. I want to ask the doctor how the fetus from the abortion is handled?

Doctor's answer:

Under normal circumstances, if it is about the fetus in an induced abortion, it is generally treated as medical waste and discarded. If the patient has a choice, they can also take it home, but it is mostly treated as medical waste. In the end, it is usually disposed of as medical waste. In such cases, if your wife undergoes an induced abortion, it is best to pay attention to postoperative recovery. As for other matters, try not to overthink too much.
