How long does it take to have an abortion after an unexpected pregnancy? It is important to choose the right time for abortion

Failure to take proper contraceptive measures can easily lead to an unwanted pregnancy. If you do not want to give birth to the baby, you need to have an abortion at the right time. It is better to have an abortion before 9 weeks of pregnancy. The specific time can be determined by a physical examination. After the abortion, pay attention to rest well, keep the vulva clean, observe bleeding, and insist on taking good contraceptive measures.

Many women usually ignore contraception. Nowadays, everyone's pace of life is fast, and pregnancy is not discovered in time. Generally, after knowing that an unexpected pregnancy occurs, people will choose artificial abortion. It is very important to choose the right method and the right time to abort, which can reduce the harm to the body. Let's take a look at how long it takes to have an abortion after an unexpected pregnancy.
Generally, it is better to have an abortion before 9 weeks of pregnancy. Preoperative examinations can be done. If the embryo is relatively large and has grown bones, it will not be able to be absorbed by a straw at this time. It is necessary to wait until the embryo and most of the placenta are expelled before performing uterine cleaning. Failed abortion may require the use of forceps curettage. This type of operation has relatively high risks and can easily cause heavy bleeding and damage to the cervix. After the operation, problems such as intrauterine adhesions, uterine damage and infection are prone to occur.
Other methods of artificial abortion can also be used, such as painless abortion, which is safer. The patient will not feel any pain during general anesthesia, but it does not mean that there is no harm at all. Afterwards, physical care measures should be taken to recover faster.
After the abortion, make sure to get a good rest and eat more nutritious foods, such as soy products, dairy products, meat products, and fish products, which are rich in nutrients and can make the endometrium's repair ability stronger. Do not touch cold water, go to work, or do any exercise within 15 days.
You should also observe the bleeding situation at ordinary times. Generally, if the bleeding lasts for more than a week and there are abnormal problems such as abnormal vaginal discharge, fever, abdominal pain, etc., you should go to the hospital for follow-up in time to avoid the occurrence of other diseases.
The vulva needs to be cleaned properly. After the abortion, the cervix has not yet completely closed, so you need to rest for a while. Underwear and sanitary products need to be changed and washed frequently. Do not take a sitz bath within 15 days to avoid dirty water entering the body and causing infection, which can cause pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis and other diseases.
