Understanding the abortion process

How to perform an artificial abortion is an issue that many female friends are concerned about. Due to unexpected pregnancy, many female friends have to choose abortion. Therefore, it is important to understand the process of artificial abortion, which will help to perform the operation smoothly.

Regarding the process of artificial abortion, experts pointed out that there are two commonly used early artificial abortion surgeries: vacuum aspiration and curettage. The former is suitable for pregnant women within 10 weeks, and the latter is suitable for pregnant women between 10 and 14 weeks. Within 10 weeks of pregnancy, the uterus is not too large; the fetus and placenta have not yet formed, and generally there is no need to dilate the cervix. It is easy to suck out the fetal mass tissue; the reaction during the operation is mild; there is less bleeding, the operation time is short, and you can go home after resting for 1-2 hours after the operation. The recovery is also fast, and the impact on the body is small.

At 10-14 weeks of pregnancy, as the embryo grows gradually, the placenta has formed, and the uterus also grows, it is not appropriate to use simple suction abortion at this time, but to use forceps curettage abortion. This operation is difficult, bleeding is heavy, and recovery is relatively slow, which has a certain impact on the body. If the pregnancy exceeds 14 weeks, the above two types of artificial abortion cannot be performed, and hospitalization for induced labor is required, which increases the pain of pregnant women and the risk of surgery.

The above introduces the process of artificial abortion. If female friends need to have an artificial abortion, they should try to perform a vacuum aspiration surgery within 10 weeks of pregnancy to reduce the pain of the abortion.
