How many times does an abortion affect fertility

Patient's question:

I gave birth to my daughter via cesarean section on the 22nd day of the first lunar month in 2009. In the first lunar month of 2009, I had an abortion. Now I am pregnant again, and I still want another child, but it's not the right time. I would like to ask, if I have this child aborted this time, will I still be able to get pregnant in the future, and what is the probability of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Multiple miscarriages can be harmful to the body. They may lead to conditions such as habitual abortion or infertility. The number of miscarriages should ideally not exceed three. Multiple induced abortions can easily cause damage to the endometrium, making it more susceptible to invasion into the uterine muscle layer, resulting in endometrial ectopia. This can lead to the development of adenomyosis and endometriosis.
After an induced abortion, the body's resistance is weakened, making it highly susceptible to infections. During such infections, pathogens can easily enter the uterus, reaching the pelvic cavity and causing conditions like endometritis, fallopian tube inflammation, ovarian cysts, and pelvic inflammatory disease. These conditions can lead to infertility in the future.
I strongly advise you not to have any more induced abortions. Frequent induced abortions can cause damage to the uterus and fallopian tubes, potentially resulting in lifelong infertility.
