In modern society, people are becoming more and more open-minded, with more and more unmarried men and women cohabiting, and the number of women who accidentally become pregnant has also increased year by year. Accidental pregnancy brings a lot of inconvenience to life and work, so many people choose to undergo abortion. Although abortion is a small surgery, it has a significant impact on women's physical health. So, what's the harm of women doing abortion? How to maintain health after abortion?
What are the dangers of women having abortions?
1. Endometriosis
Repeated aspiration of the contents of the uterine cavity may cause adhesion of the uterine cavity and cervical canal, and may also cause uterine cavity hematocele or menstrual blood flowing back into the abdominal cavity, causing endometriosis and periodic lower abdominal pain.
2. Long term complications
Such as chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, menstrual abnormalities, secondary infertility, and endometriosis.
3. Uterine perforation, life-threatening
During pregnancy, the uterine wall becomes soft and thin, and multiple pregnancies and artificial abortion operations can easily penetrate the soft and thin uterine wall, causing uterine perforation and endangering life.
4. Complications during second pregnancy
Infertility, late miscarriage, premature delivery, perinatal mortality, increased prenatal and postpartum bleeding rates, and increased neonatal hemolysis.
5. Amenorrhea occurs
After repeated artificial abortions, the basal layer of the endometrium is repeatedly damaged, resulting in the inability of the functional layer to regenerate. At this time, although the ovarian function is intact and ovulation is scheduled every month, amenorrhea occurs because the functional layer of the endometrium cannot regenerate after it has fallen off, which prevents menstruation.
6. Dystocia and placenta retention during re pregnancy
Repeated artificial abortion surgery often involves scraping off the endometrium. The more times you scrape, the greater the damage to the endometrium. When you want to conceive again, it is easy to have placenta implantation and adhesion, resulting in dystocia and placenta retention.
How to maintain women after abortion?
1. Pay attention to rest
After induced abortion, the state stipulates that the family planning leave is 2 weeks. During these two weeks, try to stay in bed and rest, sleep more, and exercise less. During surgery, there will be bleeding, and there will be wounds in the uterus, which is a major trauma to the body. Therefore, it takes a good rest to recover. Be careful not to engage in heavy physical labor and heavy exercise activities within a month.
2. Supplementary nutrition
After induced abortion, one should eat a nutritious and balanced diet to supplement one's health and quickly restore one's health. You can eat more meat, eggs, milk, legumes, grains, and fresh vegetables to replenish protein, folic acid, vitamins, and other substances needed for recovery, promoting rapid recovery. Here are some foods that women can eat after miscarriage:
(1) Orange
Oranges contain more vitamin C and calcium, which can enhance the elasticity and toughness of blood vessel walls and prevent bleeding. After miscarriage, the endometrium of a pregnant woman has larger wounds and more bleeding.
If you eat some oranges, you can prevent continued bleeding after miscarriage. Calcium is an important component that constitutes the bones and teeth of infants. After miscarriage, pregnant women should appropriately eat some oranges.
(2) Spinach
Spinach is hot and contains vitamin A, vitamin C, a large amount of chlorophyll, and rich in iron. It can balance endocrine functions and eliminate fatigue.

When eating, it must be blanched with hot water or soaked in fresh milk, and should not be excessive. It should be consumed in moderation.".
(3) Red dates
Red dates contain the most vitamin C, as well as a large amount of glucose and protein. Chinese medicine believes that red dates are the best tonic in fruits. It has the functions of tonifying the spleen and activating the stomach, supplementing qi and promoting fluid production, adjusting blood vessels, and resolving hundreds of poisons. It is especially suitable for people with weak spleen and stomach and insufficient qi and blood after miscarriage
