Can an IUD be inserted during an abortion?

Patient's question:

Can you get an IUD inserted at the same time as an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

It is best to consider a conventional surgical procedure for miscarriage. Medical abortion can lead to incomplete miscarriage and cause heavy bleeding. Painless abortion can easily result in uterine perforation. It is preferable to undergo a hysteroscopic-guided curettage, as there are no residual tissues post-surgery, thus preventing heavy bleeding. This is the safest method for miscarriage.
