Medical abortion and its consequences
Medical abortion, the consequences of which are not clear enough for all women, is a procedure in which various drugs are used instead of surgical ones to terminate a pregnancy.
Before talking about the consequences of medical abortion, let’s tell a few words about him. Medical abortion is carried out either in the doctor’s office, or, if the condition of the pregnant woman does not allow her to go to the hospital, with a call to the attending physician and midwife. This type of abortion does not require anesthesia or surgery, but it can only be done at the beginning of pregnancy. Objective reasons for choosing a medical abortion may be medical indicators: this type of termination of pregnancy is the least traumatic, after which the uterine mucosa remains intact, unlike the surgical method. In addition, with medical abortion, termination of pregnancy can be carried out very early, before serious hormonal changes in the woman’s body, when the emotional connection between the mother and the child is not yet so strong.
Main consequences
What are the consequences of medical abortion should be considered as harmful or hazardous to health? First of all, this is an incomplete abortion, when a complete rejection of the fetus has not occurred. In this case, surgery may be required to permanently terminate the pregnancy. Other consequences of medical abortion can be damage to the uterus and severe uterine bleeding, which can also sometimes require medical attention.
It is important to remember that a woman must be absolutely confident in her decision before taking any medication. After all, if, after starting to take medications for medical abortion, a woman suddenly wants to change her decision, one of the consequences will be a very high risk of developing significant birth defects in the child.
In general, if no identified consequences are found, medical abortion does not affect future pregnancies.
