A surgical abortion involves dilating the opening of the uterus (cervix) and placing a small suction tube into the uterus. Suction is used to remove the fetus and associated pregnancy material from the uterus.

Before this procedure, you may have the following tests:

A urine test to check if you are pregnant.

A blood test checks your blood type. Depending on the test results, you may need a special shot to prevent problems if you get pregnant in the future. This vaccine is called Rho(D) immune globulin (RhoGAM and other brand names).

An ultrasound will show you how many weeks pregnant you are.

During the procedure:

You will lie on the examination table.

You may receive medicine (sedatives) to help you relax and feel sleepy.

Your feet will rest in a support called a horseshoe. This allows your legs to be positioned so your doctor can see your vaginal cervix.

Your healthcare provider may numb your cervix, so you feel minimal pain during the procedure.

Small rods called dilators will be placed in your cervix to gently open it. Sometimes, laminaria (medical seaweed sticks) are placed in the cervix. This is done the day before the procedure to help the cervix dilate slowly.

Your provider will insert a fallopian tube into your uterus and then use a special vacuum to remove the pregnancy tissue through the fallopian tube.

You may be given antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection.

After surgery, you may be given medicine to help your uterus contract. This can reduce bleeding.

Therefore, a good recovery after a regular abortion is very helpful for women's physical and mental health.

Women should take care of themselves and protect themselves. Don't be greedy for a short-term bargain and regret it after problems arise.

After an abortion, the ovaries can generally resume ovulation function within 22 days, and menstruation will occur in about 1 month. However, a small number of women experience menstrual disorders such as prolonged menstruation, irregular cycles, and amenorrhea after an abortion. This situation generally returns to normal after 2-3 months, and for a few people it lasts longer. There is no need to worry too much. Just pay attention to observation, postoperative hygiene, and infection prevention.

Can you detect whether you have had an abortion? Experienced doctors can tell if you have had an abortion during a gynecological examination, but doctors nowadays respect the patients' feelings and generally won't say anything directly, so you can rest assured. If you check the cervix, you can tell if you have a history of pregnancy, but it must be done by a professional and experienced doctor. Women need to pay attention to whether abortion can be detected.
