Patient's question:
An ultrasound can measure the thickness of the uterine wall. Can the thickness be used to decide whether to have an abortion? What is the normal thickness of the uterine wall? How thin does the wall need to be to cause infertility? How much does the uterine wall thickness decrease after one abortion?Doctor's answer:
Hello, induced abortion is an emergency measure for women when contraception fails. This procedure is relatively safe and simple, making it a commonly used method for terminating pregnancy in clinical practice. However, it should be clarified that induced abortion is merely an emergency measure and by no means the preferred solution. This is because induced abortion is not without side effects; it may lead to a series of complications, including infection, bleeding, secondary infertility, pelvic congestion syndrome, endometriosis, spontaneous abortion, and preterm labor.Advice: It is recommended to promptly visit a hospital for relevant examinations to identify the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
