How to handle children born after induced abortion

Patient's question:

What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? The harm is relatively small. How should the child be handled after an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally, medical abortion can be performed within 49 days of pregnancy, causing less damage to the uterus. An abortion can be done within three months of pregnancy. Before an abortion, an ultrasound examination is required to rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. A follow-up ultrasound is recommended one week later to rule out the possibility of uterine atony or residual tissue. The cost of an abortion is estimated to be around 300 yuan, but there are regional differences. You can consult locally.
If bleeding does not stop after more than three weeks of medical abortion and the amount of bleeding does not decrease, it may be incomplete medical abortion. You must seek immediate medical attention at a formal hospital. If the abortion is not complete, a Dilation and Curettage (D&C) procedure may be necessary.
It is recommended that you have an ultrasound now. If there is any residual tissue in the uterine cavity, it is best to undergo a D&C procedure as soon as possible.
