Artificial cessation of pregnancy becamethe only operation that is not primarily aimed at improving health. And only in a very small percentage of the case histories it is carried out due to medical indications aimed at preserving the health or life of a woman. In this connection, a reasonable question arises, what consequences after abortion should be expected? Consider all types of medical abortion and possible measures to prevent a deterioration in the reproductive health of women.
Medical abortion
This type of artificial cessationpregnancy relies on the use of a special drug by a patient under the strict supervision of a doctor. It consists of substances aimed at suppressing the production of progesterone. Medical abortion is carried out exclusively in medical institutions and only if there are necessary results of analyzes and ultrasound data on uterine pregnancy.
It is worth noting that medical abortion canTo be produced at the request of a woman only for a period of 3 to 7 weeks. In the future, its use is used solely for medical reasons and with the written consent of the woman.
What are the consequences aftermedical abortion? Despite the fact that WHO recommends 2 strictly defined drugs as the most safe for women's reproductive health, one of them, namely mifepristone, has the ability to "settle" in the body and influence subsequent pregnancies. Another type of consequence after medical abortion is the incomplete departure of the fetal egg from the uterus. Consequently, the doctor will have to use other methods of artificial termination of pregnancy. To prevent such consequences is possible with the help of regular supervision at the doctor and reception of the hormone therapy prescribed by him.
Кроме того, медикаментозный аборт должен Perform only by a qualified physician and only with the use of original, usable preparations. Otherwise, there is a risk of infertility or, on the contrary, further development of pregnancy with genetic disorders in the fetus.
Vacuum aspiration
For this period of time, WHO is recognized as the mostsparing the way of abortion. He is also known as "mini-abortion" because of the time at which he is being held. The essence of this method is that the doctor conducts the "suction" of the fetus and its amniotic fluid with anesthesia. This procedure can be performed manually or by means of an electric vacuum suction, which is introduced into the uterus. The time allocated for this surgical intervention is four to six weeks of pregnancy.
Какие могут быть последствия после аборта, carried out with the help of vacuum aspiration? The first and the most important is the damage to the cervix, as well as the endometrium. The second, which occurs much less often, is the incomplete extraction of the fetus and its amniotic fluid, or the lack of extraction as a whole and, as a consequence, the continuation of the development of pregnancy. This complication is made possible by the absence of visual contact with the uterus. Avoid or timely identify the negative consequences of this type of abortion is possible when observing the rules of visiting a gynecologist in the post-abortion period, as well as observing a temporary ban on sexual activity for a period approved by the doctor.
Instrumental abortion
Until recently, it was considered the onlypossible way of artificial termination of pregnancy. What consequences after the abortion conducted by this method should be expected, almost every woman knows from lectures on reproductive health. But everything is in order.
The doctor under anesthesia dilates the cervix, throughwhich is introduced forceps and curette. The forceps extract the fruit, and the curette scraps the inner layer of the uterus. Earlier this operation was carried out "blindly", now more and more doctors carry it out under supervision with the help of ultrasound.
What consequences can there be after abortion,conducted in this way? Let's start with the method of introducing tools. The cervix is artificially expanded, and, therefore, there is a risk of cracks and tears. Endometrium can be scraped to a depth much higher than necessary, which leads to its damage. The consequences can be a whole range of diseases, starting with cervical erosion and ending with diseases produced by endometriosis.
This list is limited only to those methodsartificial termination of pregnancy, which are available to women for up to twelve weeks. However, it is important to know what consequences after abortion are reversible.
Previously, it was only the physiological aspects of abortion, it is worth mentioning psychological. As a rule, because of sharp adjustmenthormonal background woman slope to the development of psychological illnesses - aggressiveness or protracted depression. Therefore, it is important to turn to a specialist for assistance in this period, even if there are no external signs of the disease.
Regarding what consequences after the abortionin the physiological plan are reversible, it is necessary to consult the attending physician. However, it can be safely asserted that premature subsequent birth, erosion of the cervix, primary infertility can be prevented if the recommendations of the post-abortion period are strictly followed and subsequent abortions are avoided with reliable contraceptive methods.
