Patient's question:
Patient Gender: I have had a cesarean section and later two induced abortions. Please ask if this will affect future pregnancy and fertility?Doctor's answer:
Multiple miscarriages can be quite harmful, damaging the endometrium and leading to conditions such as placenta previa or placenta accreta in future pregnancies. This can result in postpartum hemorrhage, endocrine disorders, irregular menstruation, or even amenorrhea. Post-abortion infections are common, such as pelvic inflammatory disease or salpingitis, which may lead to infertility. It can also cause venous thrombosis, habitual abortion, endometriosis, uterine perforation, and other issues. However, it is not absolute. If the surgical procedure is performed properly, with thorough anti-infection measures, and if the uterus and ovaries recover well post-surgery, and if follow-up check-ups are conducted regularly as advised by the doctor, it generally will not affect future health.
