There are several ways to terminate a pregnancy. Medical termination of early pregnancy based on the use of special preparations. They affect the function of the so-called corpus luteum, stimulate the activity of the uterus, which leads to the termination of unwanted pregnancy. Such an interruption of pregnancy is effective only in case of complete expulsion from the uterus of women of all products of conception. In this case, no surgical intervention occurs. Specialists perform medical abortion only after establishing the gestational age and confirming its presence. In our country, it is forbidden to use this method if the gestational age is less than six weeks. It is worth noting that the success of such an abortion directly depends on the term, which must be confirmed using a special transvaginal ultrasound examination.
Doctors believe that with medical abortion, you need to carefully monitor the woman. First, a pregnant woman must undergo a full examination and sign the so-called written consent. Thus, she agrees to carry out all types of manipulations. The woman herself will also take the drug in the presence of her attending physician. Sometimes she is watched for more than six hours. Most often, women choose a special combined method. It is based on a daily visit to the clinic and taking a special tool several times. The next examination is carried out in about a month. It should show that the abortion was successful.
There are situations when this type of abortion is completely ineffective. Pregnancy is progressing or even complicated. In this case, surgical intervention is required.
If the doctor uses the drug in tablets to terminate the pregnancy, this is a tablet termination of pregnancy. In general, progesterone synthesis inhibitors are most often used for medical abortion, although this drug has not yet been registered in Russia. Cytostatic drugs, synthetic analogues of GHG, antiprogestins - this is not the whole list of drugs used.
The termination of pregnancy in the early stages is carried out by doctors of many clinics in our country and abroad. According to statistics, most women prefer injections for abortion. In general, it is worth noting that medical abortion women are much easier to tolerate psychologically than surgical abortion. Surgical intervention is always accompanied by the introduction of anesthesia. However, drug interruption has its drawbacks. Firstly, it is very painful. Such an abortion is accompanied by many side effects. In addition, it is expensive and long lasting. With him, you need to go to the doctor several times. As for the effectiveness of drug termination of pregnancy, it decreases as the fetus grows and develops. Such abortions are done in all countries of the world. However, not every specialist of the clinic or other medical institution agrees to carry it out.
Abortion in the early stages, as mentioned above, is possible in two ways. The long-term consequences of both methods are still not fully understood. Failures can occur absolutely at any time. Medical abortion is less associated with trauma to the cervix and the organ itself. In any case, in the early stages, it is best to use drugs. In case of unsuccessful abortion, doctors will be forced to have surgery. It is worth carefully monitoring the condition of the vagina, regardless of the method of abortion.
In conclusion, it is worth saying that the nulliparous women should well consider its decision. Abortion in the early stages is carried out after the rehabilitation of the genital tract of the patient. Rehabilitation therapy is aimed at restoring a woman's reproductive function. It should be passed to every woman after an abortion.
