How is an artificial abortion performed and what are the precautions for artificial abortion?

When you want to have an artificial abortion, you need to undergo a preoperative examination. The doctor needs to fully understand the patient's physical condition before determining the surgical plan. The operation requires urination, anesthesia, disinfection, and then fetal removal, fetal rupture, and uterine curettage. After the operation, you need to be observed for one or two hours before you can be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate.

Some people choose to terminate pregnancy through medical abortion or artificial abortion after an unexpected pregnancy. Generally, artificial abortion can be performed within 70 days of pregnancy, and the best time for artificial abortion is between 40 and 55 days of pregnancy. At this time, the operation time is shorter, the amount of bleeding is less, the recovery is faster, and the damage to the body is less. So, how is artificial abortion performed?
1. How to perform artificial abortion
1. Preoperative examination <br/>Before performing an artificial abortion, some preoperative examinations are required, such as electrocardiogram, routine leucorrhea examination, B-ultrasound examination, etc. The doctor will understand the patient's physical condition and can better determine the surgical plan.
2. Operation process <br/>Before the abortion, the patient needs to urinate first to empty the bladder, take the lithotomy position, and lie on the operating table. The doctor uses anesthetics to give the patient general or local anesthesia. After the anesthesia takes effect, the patient's vulva, cervix and other parts are disinfected with complex iodine. Then the fetus is removed, the uterine cavity is suctioned, the fetus is broken, and the residual materials in the uterine cavity are cleared to complete the operation of artificial abortion.
3. After the operation <br/>Even if the patient is awake after the operation, he/she cannot leave the hospital immediately. It is best to observe for 1 to 2 hours. If there are no discomfort symptoms, he/she can leave the hospital and go home to recuperate. During the recuperation period, take medicines such as motherwort and antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor.
2. Precautions for artificial abortion
1. Strengthen nutrition <br/>Because artificial abortion can cause certain damage to the female endometrium and the body's vitality, if you want to recover better, you should pay attention to eating more high-protein foods such as eggs and milk, and high-vitamin and high-fiber foods such as fruits and vegetables after the operation to promote your body to recover as soon as possible.
2. Take good contraception <br/>Generally, about one month after an artificial abortion, the ovaries will resume ovulation. If you have sex at this time, you must take good contraceptive measures to prevent pregnancy again, because repeated miscarriages are particularly harmful to women.
3. Get more rest <br/>After the abortion, stay in the hospital for 1-2 hours for observation. If there are no discomfort symptoms, you can go home to recuperate. It is best to rest in bed for the first two days after the operation. Do not do heavy physical labor and strenuous exercise in the first two weeks to avoid excessive fatigue and physical discomfort.
