Is artificial abortion painful? Will it leave any sequelae?

Artificial abortion is usually painless. If the operation is performed properly and the postoperative care is better, there will usually be no sequelae. If the operation is performed improperly, there may be sequelae.

Artificial abortion refers to the termination of pregnancy by surgery or medication within 3 months of pregnancy. Medical abortion is more suitable for women within 49 days of pregnancy. The use of drugs can cause degeneration and necrosis of the uterine decidua and promote uterine contraction. Medical abortion will cause slight abdominal pain, but it is not serious and is usually acceptable. In surgical abortion, negative pressure is used to attract embryonic tissue. The operation requires anesthesia, so there is no pain.

No matter which method of artificial abortion is chosen, it will cause certain damage to the endometrium. If the operation is not performed properly, it will cause greater damage to the uterus. If the postoperative care is not good and the endometrium recovers poorly, sequelae such as menstrual disorders, uterine adhesions, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, and infertility may occur. However, if the patient recovers well, there will generally be no sequelae.

After artificial abortion, due to relatively low immunity, sexual intercourse is prohibited within one month to avoid local infection caused by sexual intercourse. At the same time, keep warm and avoid colds. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can also use drugs such as Xinsheng Biotechnology Granules, Motherwort Granules, and Motherwort Capsules to promote blood circulation and blood stasis to promote uterine contraction. Two weeks after the operation, you need to go to the hospital for a follow-up examination to understand the specific recovery of the uterus.
