Patient's question:
Almost four months pregnant, do I need a D&C for abortion?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the situation you mentioned, if you are 4 months pregnant and do not want the child, you should be hospitalized for induced abortion. Generally, after an induced abortion, it is recommended to have a uterine clearance treatment, which can be done under anesthesia. Generally speaking, the use of anesthesia does not affect fertility, but multiple miscarriages and induced abortions can lead to infertility. Therefore, it is necessary to take preventive measures against postoperative infection. Abstinence from sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited before menstruation returns after the surgery.
