Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, and so far, we haven't had any children. I'm very anxious about it and don't know if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he refuses. I'm very worried that my condition might worsen. Can medication-induced abortion cause fallopian tube blockage?Doctor's answer:
The harm that medication abortion inflicts on the body is no less than that of surgical abortion. It achieves the purpose of forcing the endometrium to shed forcibly by affecting the endocrine system. While damaging the endometrium, it also carries the risk of disrupting the endocrine balance. These can lead to early miscarriage, fetal malformations, fetal demise, or even amenorrhea. Medication abortion followed by uterine aspiration may cause inflammation, potentially leading to fallopian tube blockage. Women choosing medication abortion should select a regular hospital and strictly follow the doctor's guidance when taking medication. After medication, it is important to adhere to all the necessary precautions.
