Patient's question:
A few years ago, I had an abortion procedure. Now I want to have another one, but I'm afraid I might not be able to get pregnant in the future or experience habitual miscarriages. I want to know how harmful it is for a woman's body to have two abortions?Doctor's answer:
Multiple miscarriages can be quite harmful. They can damage the endometrium, leading to conditions such as placenta previa or placenta accreta in future pregnancies, which may cause severe postpartum hemorrhage, menstrual disorders, or even amenorrhea. Post-abortion infections are also common, such as pelvic inflammatory disease or tubal inflammation, which can result in infertility, habitual abortion, or uterine perforation. However, it is not absolute. If the surgical procedure is performed properly, with thorough anti-infection measures, and if the uterus and ovaries recover well postoperatively, and if medical advice is followed and regular follow-up visits are made to the hospital, it generally will not affect future health.
