Can I still have an abortion after three months?

Artificial abortion can still be performed within three months, but detailed examination and evaluation are required to ensure the safety of the mother. At this time, it is the mid-term stage of pregnancy, and the method and risk of abortion will be different. You should consult a professional doctor in time for personalized judgment and treatment.

1Can abortion be performed in three months of pregnancy?

Three months of pregnancy is 11-14 weeks of pregnancy, which is the mid-term pregnancy. At this time, the fetus is relatively fully developed. Compared with the early pregnancy, the complexity of abortion surgery increases and the risk is slightly higher. Mid-term abortion usually uses "curettage" or "induction of labor". Curettage requires the use of a dilator and a curettage to remove fetal tissue, which is suitable for pregnancies within 14 weeks; while induction of labor usually uses drugs to induce uterine contractions, and is mostly used for pregnancies over 14 weeks. However, these operations require an assessment of the physical condition of the pregnant woman, such as the health of the uterus inside and outside, blood coagulation function, and whether there are complications. Before having an abortion, an ultrasound examination, blood test, and necessary gynecological examination should be performed to clarify the indications for surgery, thereby effectively avoiding possible complications.

2 Precautions for mid-term abortion

Before undergoing a mid-term abortion, women need to understand the risks involved in the surgery and postoperative precautions. From the perspective of surgical risks, mid-term abortion may have potential problems such as infection, postoperative bleeding, and uterine damage. If the pregnant woman previously had uterine problems such as uterine fibroids, endometritis, or had blood diseases or immune system problems, postoperative recovery may be slower. Patients are advised to actively communicate with their doctors to ensure that their physical and mental conditions before surgery meet the requirements of the surgery. After surgery, special attention should be paid to personal hygiene, avoid bacterial infections, and observe vaginal bleeding. If it lasts for more than 7 days or is accompanied by odor or abdominal pain, a follow-up visit should be made in time. Sexual intercourse and heavy physical labor should be avoided within one month after surgery, and high-protein and high-vitamin foods should be supplemented in the diet to speed up physical recovery.

3 Other suggestions

In addition to surgical abortion, some pregnant women can choose medical abortion. This method is mainly suitable for pregnant women within 12 weeks of pregnancy, but at the end of the third month, close to 14 weeks, the effectiveness of medical abortion is low, and it may also lead to incomplete abortion, and surgical curettage is still required in the end. Modern medicine recommends at least taking comprehensive contraceptive measures in advance to avoid excessive physical and mental trauma. If you plan to terminate the pregnancy, be sure to have an artificial abortion at the earliest stage, because the risks and recovery period of early abortion surgery are shorter and safer.

Abortion can still be performed within three months, but the difficulty and physical burden of the operation are higher than in early pregnancy, so early treatment is safer and more effective. At the same time, you need to pay attention to recuperation and reexamination after the operation to avoid the negative impact of multiple abortions on your body.
