Does an induced abortion lead to infertility?

Patient's question:

What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? The harm is relatively small. Will induced abortion lead to infertility?

Doctor's answer:

To prevent infertility after induced abortion, it is important to practice effective contraception to avoid unintended pregnancy. After an induced abortion, attention should be paid to local hygiene, and sexual intercourse should be avoided prematurely to prevent infection, especially reproductive tract infections such as endometritis or salpingitis. If fever or prolonged lochia occurs, medical attention should be sought promptly. In fact, under normal circumstances, any method of induced abortion can have some impact on a woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care and health maintenance. Patients undergoing induced abortion should focus on self-care, such as proper dietary regulation and maintaining warmth to avoid catching a cold.
