Which is more harmful to the body, medical abortion or surgical abortion? Two common problems after medical abortion

Giving birth is a very happy thing for women, but there are also special circumstances. For example, the baby does not grow completely in the mother's abdomen. Although they are heartbroken, many people still choose abortion (artificial abortion or medical abortion) to end the baby's life. So in terms of the degree of damage to the female body, which one is more harmful, artificial abortion or medical abortion?

Which one is more harmful, medical abortion or surgical abortion?

1. Medical abortion:

Medical abortion is also called drug abortion. It is a method of abortion without surgery in the early stages of pregnancy. It is achieved by injection or medication. This method is applicable to the first 7 weeks of pregnancy. The drug is used to force the uterus to contract significantly and remove the fetus from the body. Naturally, the contraction of the uterus will cause abdominal pain. The degree and duration of pain vary from person to person.

The advantage of this method is that it avoids the risks of surgery and various complications, and is relatively easy to operate. The disadvantages are: 1. Due to different physical conditions, the fetus may not be expelled after taking the medicine (or injection) for a week, which means that the current medical abortion has failed, and you have to go to the hospital for a second time to undergo an abortion. 2. If internal bleeding occurs during the process of expelling the fetus, other risks will occur. 3. If the stomach pain is severe, it may be unbearable and the body cannot bear it.

2. Abortion:

Abortion is commonly known as abortion surgery. It is best not to take more than 10 weeks. It is to remove your baby by manual surgery. Nowadays, the technology is very advanced. During the operation, you will be given anesthesia so that you will not feel pain. Although the body will hurt for a while after the operation, it will be fine after resting for about a week. The main reason is that medical technology is very advanced now. This kind of surgery is considered a minimally invasive surgery in large hospitals, and the harm to the body and the risk of surgery are not great.

Common problems after medical abortion

1. The degree of harm to the patient's body is the same, and repeated abortions can easily lead to infertility. Therefore, women must take good contraceptive measures and try not to have abortions. Relatively speaking, the two methods will have better effects, because medical abortion also requires curettage treatment.

2. After the abortion, you should carefully observe the bleeding condition. If the bleeding is heavy and lasts for a long time, you should take appropriate hemostatic drugs. After the abortion, women should pay attention to adjusting their body and it is best to rest in bed for three days.

The explanation of which is more harmful, artificial abortion or medical abortion, is very clear. In fact, both artificial abortion and medical abortion will cause certain harm to women's bodies. However, under normal circumstances, doctors recommend medical abortion if the pregnancy does not exceed 39 days. If the pregnancy is too long, medical abortion is ineffective, and it is easy to have an incomplete abortion, which will require a second curettage, which will always cause greater harm and is not as good as artificial abortion from the beginning.
