Why do you need to do B-ultrasound examination before abortion?

B-ultrasound examination before abortion surgery is very important, and its functions mainly include the following aspects.

1. Rule out ectopic pregnancy

An important function of B-ultrasound examination is to rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy in women. If it is an ectopic pregnancy, abortion surgery is definitely not allowed, and ectopic pregnancy must be treated in time to avoid causing serious damage to the health of the pregnant woman.

2. Clearly see the location of the gestational sac

Ultrasound examination before abortion can determine the position of the gestational sac to prevent serious consequences such as incomplete abortion caused by vacuum aspiration. If the gestational sac has not reached the uterine cavity, or there is some abnormal position of the gestational sac, ultrasound examination can be used to fully understand it to ensure that the operation is carried out in a targeted manner and increase the success rate of the operation.

3. Determine the size of the gestational sac

Before the abortion operation, B-ultrasound examination can also measure the size of the gestational sac, and determine the appropriate time for the operation based on the pregnancy time. After the operation, the size of the sucked out embryonic tissue can be compared with the measured data of the gestational sac, which greatly enhances the safety of the operation, improves its success rate, and avoids the occurrence of adverse situations such as incomplete abortion.

4. Understand the condition of the reproductive tract

The B-ultrasound examination before abortion surgery also has another function, which is to understand whether there are special conditions such as deformities in the reproductive tract. Appropriate preparations can be made for specific problems before the operation to avoid some unnecessary physical injuries during and after the operation.
