There are many dangers of artificial abortion, such as incomplete uterine suction, uterine bleeding, uterine inflammation, uterine perforation, endometriosis, etc. due to careless operation. In addition, the biggest harm of artificial abortion is that it can lead to lifelong infertility. This is especially likely to happen to people who have had multiple abortions. Due to repeated scraping of the endometrium, the uterine wall becomes thinner and the endometrium becomes less and less. Leading to oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea. If the fertilized egg implants without good "soil", it cannot develop into an embryo, resulting in lifelong infertility. Therefore, artificial abortion must be performed with caution, and must be performed in a regular hospital by a specialist doctor to conduct relevant examinations and standardized operations to minimize the risks.
