How harmful is abortion to the body?

Artificial abortion is a common method of terminating pregnancy, which causes great harm to women's bodies, mainly including endometrial damage, uterine perforation, infection risks, and psychological harm.

1. Endometrial damage: Artificial abortion surgery can damage the endometrium, especially if the surgery is repeated or performed improperly, which may cause the endometrium to become thinner and even form intrauterine adhesions. This will affect the amount of menstruation, and in severe cases, it may lead to amenorrhea, which in turn affects fertility.

2. Uterine perforation: During the operation, if the uterus is in an abnormal position or the operation is improper, it may cause uterine perforation. After perforation, heavy bleeding or damage to the organs around the uterus may occur. In severe cases, laparotomy repair is required.

3. Risk of infection: Artificial abortion is a uterine cavity operation. If you do not pay attention to hygiene or your body resistance is poor after the operation, infection is easy to occur. Infection may cause pelvic inflammatory disease, salpingitis and other inflammations, and in severe cases may lead to infertility.

4. Psychological harm: The artificial abortion operation itself will bring certain psychological pressure and fear to women. This psychological shadow may exist for a long time and affect women's mental health. Due to the existence of psychological shadow, some women may have fear or resistance to sexual life after the operation, leading to sexual indifference.

In order to reduce the harm of artificial abortion to the body, women should take contraceptive measures, such as using condoms and birth control pills, to prevent unwanted pregnancy. If artificial abortion is required, it should be performed in a regular hospital to reduce the risk of surgery. After the operation, you should pay attention to rest and care to avoid excessive fatigue and infection.
