What are the symptoms of an incomplete abortion? There are five dangers of an incomplete abortion

Artificial abortion is the most popular abortion method for women after pregnancy, because most artificial abortions are painless, which makes women feel less pain. However, the abortion must clean up the substances in the uterus, otherwise it may damage the uterus, and some may even lead to lifelong infertility. Let's learn about the symptoms of an incomplete artificial abortion.

1. Symptoms of unclean abortion

1. Continuous bleeding and abdominal pain after abortion are typical symptoms of incomplete abortion. If the abdominal pain lasts for more than one week, it is a sign of incomplete abortion and the harm is very serious. Therefore, a clear diagnosis must be made. If the vaginal bleeding lasts for more than 10 days after abortion, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up examination to check whether the abortion is incomplete.

2. Incomplete abortion occurs. If the embryo remains in the uterus for a long time, it is easy to cause intrauterine infection and damage the endometrium, which will then cause fallopian tube occlusion and lead to infertility. Some women have undergone multiple curettage operations, and the uterine wall has become thinner or damaged. If the dosage of medical abortion is not properly controlled, it is easy to cause uterine rupture.

3. If the abortion is not clean, there will be heavy vaginal bleeding and severe abdominal pain within one month. If these two symptoms occur after the abortion, you should go to the hospital for treatment in time. About one month after the abortion, it is recommended to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to check the recovery of the uterus. If the abortion is not clean, you should undergo a uterine curettage as soon as possible to avoid increasing the chance of uterine infection and inducing infertility.

If the abortion is not clean, vaginal bleeding will generally occur within a month and abdominal pain will worsen. If these symptoms occur, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. It is recommended to go to the hospital for B-ultrasound examination about one month after the abortion to check the recovery of the uterus and whether the abortion is completely clean. If the abortion is not clean, it is necessary to clean the uterus as soon as possible, otherwise it will increase the chance of adverse conditions such as uterine infection, especially if the inflammation is severe, it is very likely to cause female infertility.

2. What are the dangers of unclean abortion?

1. Uterine perforation

The greater the gestational age, the higher the risk; the more miscarriages, the greater the chance of perforation. Other factors such as abnormal uterine position or shape or previous uterine surgery (such as cesarean section or myomectomy) also increase the chance of perforation.

2. Bacterial infection

If the instruments are not completely sterilized, or the surgeon himself does not pay attention to the aseptic process, it may cause intrauterine infection and even continue to spread upward to invade the fallopian tubes and pelvic cavity. In severe cases, it may result in ectopic pregnancy or infertility in the future.

3. Cervical injury

During the process of dilating the cervix, if you are not careful or the dilation speed is too fast, it is possible to cause damage to the cervix and make future pregnancies more likely to have miscarriages, especially for women who are pregnant for the first time or have not yet given birth.

4. Cervical or endometrial adhesion

During the uterine dilatation and curettage, if the scraping is too rough, causing injury or inflammation to the cervix or endometrium, it is possible to cause postoperative adhesion of the cervix or endometrium, and cause menstrual abnormalities, such as amenorrhea or too little menstrual flow. In severe cases, infertility may occur in the future.

5. Incomplete miscarriage

If the operation is not performed completely, a small amount of fetal tissue will remain in the uterus, which may affect uterine contraction and cause continuous bleeding or adhesion, infection, etc. It is best to perform another careful operation to remove the remaining tissue. Abnormal position or shape of the uterus is generally more likely to cause this sequelae.
