Patient's question:
What preparations are needed before an abortion?Doctor's answer:
Before an abortion, it is recommended to first ensure an empty stomach because blood tests are required. Additionally, anesthesia drugs may cause nausea. It is generally advised to choose a comprehensive hospital with a grade three or higher gynecology and obstetrics department for the abortion. Note that routine antibiotic treatment must be administered after the procedure (typically including anti-anaerobic infection drugs and cephalosporin antibiotics), along with oral ingestion of Motherwort ointment. Rest, increase your nutrition, and ensure a follow-up check-up within about two weeks. Furthermore, if you are not certain about wanting a child, please take proper contraceptive measures, as multiple abortions can lead to difficulties or infertility in future pregnancies.
