Is low-cost abortion really low-cost?

Is low-cost abortion really low-cost? Then what is the reason for keeping the price down? Through visits and investigations of several hospitals, the following points can be summarized:

1. Lower costs

At present, the number of patients seeking abortion is gradually increasing, and the age of patients is getting younger. In order to attract more patients, many abortion clinics have successively launched price-limited abortion clinics, and try to lower the price by lowering the cost of the operation.

Not using disposable surgical materials is a good way to lower the price. Not using disposable surgical materials can easily lead to cross infection during abortion surgery, which can lead to cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease and other sequelae of abortion. This practice has many problems. Is the disinfection of surgical instruments strict? How often should the disinfectant be changed? These are closely related to the patient. Have the majority of women considered this when undergoing abortion surgery?

2. Reduce surgical procedures

The basic steps of abortion are: gynecological examination, laboratory tests, and B-ultrasound. The purpose of gynecological examination is to exclude patients with vaginal inflammation, otherwise it is easy to cause infection to spread after surgery, resulting in serious consequences such as pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, and infertility. Another means to save costs and lower prices is to do a series of gynecological examinations before abortion. Many women also think so, thinking that it is just an abortion, is it necessary to spend so much money on irrelevant examinations? It is absolutely impossible to save these gynecological examinations. Routine gynecological examinations and vaginal secretion tests before abortion are to timely detect latent diseases that can cause postoperative infection, and then give treatment first, so as to ensure safety during and after the operation and the health of the patient. Many low-cost abortions skip the gynecological examination step. It seems that the price has dropped, but the safety of the abortion patient himself has been greatly reduced.

3. There is a shortage of medical staff, and even interns are being asked to work on the job

Currently, many low-cost abortion operations are performed by young doctors, and some are even performed by interns without a practicing certificate. Since abortion is a minor operation performed in the woman's uterine cavity, we all know that the uterine wall is not very thick, especially for women who have had multiple abortions, the uterine wall is very thin. If the doctor's clinical experience is insufficient, it is easy to cause a serious accident of uterine perforation, or the uterine wall is scraped too severely, resulting in frequent incidents of female infertility, which has brought great harm to the health of the majority of female friends.

Gynecologists pointed out that the number of women who are infertile due to improper abortions due to accidental pregnancy is increasing year by year. They put cheapness and speed first when choosing abortion methods, ignoring the harm caused by improper abortions to the body and regretting it for life. Therefore, it is necessary to remind the majority of female friends: although abortion is only a minor operation nowadays, it is the key to women's fertility. Don't be tempted by low-cost abortions. Choosing safe abortion technology and regular and qualified hospitals is a rational way to seek medical treatment.
