Each conscious woman who decided to have an abortion, thinks about possible complications. One of the first questions of such patients at the reception of a gynecologist: "And what consequences can there be after an abortion?".
It is important to understand that sterile hospital conditions and a highly qualified specialist are not a guarantee of the absence of undesirable consequences after an abortion, but only to a certain extent able to reduce the level of risk.
There are women who have more than a dozen abortions, but this fact does not prevent them from becoming pregnant again and does not observe any consequences of abortion. While a woman who has interrupted pregnancy once causes serious complications right up to infertility. Each case is individual, but the risk of complications is always present.
Abortion and its harm to the body of women - surgical abortion
The consequences after abortion, regardless of its type, are negative:
- Any abortion leads to a violation of the hormonal balance of women, against this background there are: gynecological diseases (uterine fibroids, polycystic ovaries, neoplasms in the chest), endocrinological disorders, metabolic disorders (excess weight set).
- The threat of habitual miscarriage (two or more miscarriages in a row), the risk of an impending and ectopic pregnancy after an abortion is significantly increased.
- Infectious and inflammatory diseases of the genital organs, dysfunction of the endometrium, obstruction of the fallopian tubes, etc. - predisposing factors to the most sad consequence of abortion - infertility.
Surgical abortion is most dangerous, especially the consequences of the first such abortion are dangerous. He threatens a woman:
- heavy blood loss;
- complications of anesthesia;
- perforation (rupture) of the walls of the uterus;
- inflammatory processes of the pelvic organs;
- obstruction of the fallopian tubes;
- thrombosis;
- disorders of the menstrual cycle;
- mental disorders;
- infertility;
- and even sepsis.
Consequences of medical and vacuum abortion
Medical abortion is a relatively (!) Safe method of abortion. But in fairness it is necessary to point out the possible consequences after medical abortion:
- incomplete exit of the fetal egg (the most frequent consequence of abortion conducted by the pills) and, as a result, subsequent surgical intervention to remove its residues;
- massive bleeding up to the need for blood transfusion;
- infectious complications up to septic shock;
- the continuation of pregnancy, the presence of serious malformations in every fourth child born after an unsuccessful medical abortion.
Vacuum abortion (mini-abortion) is considered the most acceptable because of minimal unwanted complications. Even in the case of such a relatively gentle method of termination of pregnancy, a woman is not fully insured. A frequent consequence of vacuum abortion is incomplete removal of the fetal egg, massive bloody discharge and pain in the lower abdomen will prompt this. Sometimes a fetal egg can not be removed at all, it is necessary to resort to curettage.
First abortion - psychological consequences of abortion
It is especially difficult for abortion to be carried by first-rate women and girls. The consequences of the first abortion is not only the risk of all the above complications, but also a powerful blow to the psyche. Postabortny syndrome, during which depression, feelings of remorse and remorse, despair and unpleasant memories,
Physical pain is forgotten, genital injuries heal, hormonal balance is restored, but the psychological consequences after abortion remain for many years. In every boy or girl who meets an abortion, a woman will look at her unborn baby for a long time.
The decision on termination of pregnancy should be considered and weighed, we hope, you will make the right choice in favor of the child.
