Patient's question:
Medical history: First child, no surgery has been performed, prenatal examination shows fetal development abnormalities. Past treatment and effectiveness: No treatment has been done. What help do you want: Will a miscarriage affect future fertility?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's generally difficult to say for cases like yours, as it may affect future fertility, although the chances are relatively low. It is recommended that you make a cautious choice. You can consider an abortion, but it requires hospitalization and documentation. The later the pregnancy, the greater the potential damage to the woman and the higher the risk.One week before the abortion surgery, avoid sexual activity. On the day before the surgery, take a shower, change into clean clothes, and avoid catching a cold or getting a fever. On the morning of the surgery, fast or drink some sugar water. If your temperature exceeds 37.5°C, the surgery should be rescheduled. During the surgery, cooperate closely with the doctor and do not become overly anxious.
After the surgery, avoid sexual activity, sitz baths, vaginal irrigation, and medication for one month. This is because the cervix is relaxed, the endometrium is shedding, and the local defense mechanism is weakened, making it easier to develop retrograde infection, which can lead to conditions such as endometritis, adnexitis, and other pelvic inflammatory diseases. Severe cases may result in infertility.
