Patient's question:
I had an abortion on October 27th, and until today (December 24th), my period has not come. What's going on? Could I be pregnant again? First follow-up question: Does having an abortion harm the body? If I have it done twice in a row, will it affect my fertility in the future? My physical health is not very good, but it's not suitable for me to have a child right now. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The harm to the body caused by induced abortion is significant. It may lead to infertility, fallopian tube rupture, scarred stenosis of the fallopian tubes, fallopian tube blockage, fallopian tube inflammation, cervical laceration, uterine perforation, endometriosis, cervical or uterine adhesions, pelvic inflammatory disease, cervical erosion, endocrine disorders, menstrual disorders, incomplete abortion, hidden pain, incomplete miscarriage, and severe uterine bleeding. Therefore, it is crucial to be cautious about induced abortion. It is recommended that you avoid unintended pregnancies in the future by choosing effective contraceptive measures. You can undergo preconception testing before trying to conceive to clarify your condition.
