What are the sequelae of abortion?

The sequelae of female abortion involve many aspects. If a small amount of tissue remains in the female uterus, it will affect the contraction of the female uterus, and then cause continuous bleeding, adhesion of body tissues, infection, etc. When the number of abortions increases, there will be a chance of perforation, and the surgeon may accidentally cause a female uterine infection during the sterile process.

It is not easy for women to get pregnant, and there are many ways to end pregnancy. Abortion is a common way to end pregnancy. Abortion can be divided into natural abortion and artificial abortion. No matter which method is used, the result is that the woman's pregnancy ends. This may cause some sequelae. So let's take a look at what are the sequelae of abortion in women?
1. Sequelae of incomplete abortion <br/>If the operation is not performed well, a small amount of tissue will remain in the female uterus, affecting the contraction of the uterus and causing continuous bleeding, adhesion, infection, etc. It is best to perform a careful operation to remove the remaining tissue. The abnormal position and shape of the uterus are more likely to cause sequelae.
2. Sequelae of medical abortion <br/>Although there are no sequelae as mentioned above and it can avoid some side effects of physical and mental harm to women, attention should still be paid to the possibility of heavy bleeding and incomplete abortion.
3. May cause uterine perforation <br/>The longer the gestational age, the higher the risk and the greater the chance of perforation. For example, if the uterus is in an abnormal position or shape, or has undergone surgery before, there is a chance of perforation.
4. Bacterial infection may occur . If the doctor does not sterilize the instruments properly, or the operator does not pay attention to the aseptic surgical process, intrauterine infection may occur, and the infection may even spread upward to invade the operator's fallopian tubes and pelvic cavity. In severe cases, it may result in ectopic pregnancy and infertility in the future.
5. Adhesion and injury of the cervix or endometrium may occur . If the uterus is scraped too roughly during dilatation and curettage, the cervix or endometrium may be injured or inflamed, which may cause adhesion of the cervix and endometrium after surgery, and may cause abnormal menstruation, such as amenorrhea or too little menstruation. In severe cases, infertility may occur in the future. Pay attention to the best time for medical abortion.
The above describes the possible sequelae of female abortion. Not only may the female uterus be damaged, but the cervix may also be injured, and subsequent pregnancies may be more prone to miscarriage. Therefore, when undergoing an abortion, women must pay attention to safety first, which is what women must pay attention to.
