Related complications and treatment after abortion

Artificial abortion, also known as artificial abortion, refers to the termination of pregnancy by surgical means. If the operation is carried out in strict accordance with the operating procedures, the incidence of complications is not high. Otherwise, the following complications may occur:

1. Uterine bleeding

Generally, the amount of bleeding during an artificial abortion operation is about 30 ml. If the amount of bleeding is large, uterine contraction drugs should be given and the residual embryonic tissue in the uterine cavity should be quickly removed. Generally, patients bleed for 3 to 4 days after the operation. If the bleeding is similar to the amount of menstruation and continues, it may be an incomplete abortion or a combined infection, and you should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time.

2. Uterine perforation

If the operation is not standardized or the surgeon moves roughly, it may cause uterine perforation. Therefore, the surgeon should pay attention to careful and gentle operation during the operation. If perforation occurs, it should be treated in time.

3. Residual pregnancy tissue

Incomplete removal of the embryonic tissue during surgery may lead to bleeding and lower abdominal pain. In this case, traditional Chinese medicine, uterotonic drugs, etc. can be used to promote its excretion. If necessary, curettage can be performed again to remove residual tissue.

4. Infection

If the patient has uncontrolled genital inflammation before surgery or if aseptic operation is not strictly performed during surgery, pelvic infection may occur. At this time, anti-infection drugs should be used for treatment in a timely manner.

5. Intrauterine adhesions

If the cervix and uterine cavity are damaged during surgery, intrauterine adhesions may occur, but the incidence is low. After intrauterine adhesions occur, the cervix can be dilated or an intrauterine contraceptive device can be placed after separating the adhesions to avoid the recurrence of adhesions.

In addition to the above situations, abortion can also cause menstrual disorders, endometriosis, infertility and other conditions in women.
