Under what circumstances is induced abortion necessary? In these five situations, production is required

Induced abortion refers to when a woman needs to artificially induce uterine contractions after 12 weeks of pregnancy due to maternal or fetal factors, in order to terminate the pregnancy.

Under what circumstances is induced abortion necessary?

1. Intrauterine stillbirth and fetal malformations

The pregnant woman clearly feels that the fetal movement has disappeared, and when going to the hospital for examination, it is confirmed that the fetus has died. Immediate induction of labor is necessary to ensure the safety of the pregnant woman's life. In addition, if the fetus is found to be severely deformed or unable to survive during ultrasound examination, induction of labor is also necessary.

2. Suffering from chronic nephritis

After pregnancy, patients with chronic nephritis have an increased burden on the kidneys, which can lead to various symptoms and affect the growth and development of the fetus, which is not conducive to the recovery of the mother. In this case, it is necessary to induce labor as soon as possible and terminate the pregnancy.

3. Severe pregnancy poisoning

Severe pregnancy poisoning generally occurs in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, where small blood vessels constrict throughout the pregnant woman's body, leading to increased blood pressure, lower limb swelling, headache, dizziness, vomiting, and proteinuria after urination. The symptoms have not improved after treatment. Continuing pregnancy is prone to eclampsia, early detachment of the placenta and uterine wall, massive bleeding, fetal hypoxia or death. Therefore, pregnant women with severe gestational toxicity need to undergo induction of labor.

4. Pregnant women with polyhydramnios

Pregnant women with excessive amniotic fluid suddenly increase the bottom of the uterus, compress the stomach, shift the heart, palpitations and breathing difficulties, lie down, and seriously affect diet and sleep. Malignant reactions and fetal malformations caused by excessive amniotic fluid must immediately terminate pregnancy.

5. Suffering from organic diseases

When pregnant women suffer from diabetes or other organic diseases, they are weak and lack energy. Continuing pregnancy will affect the health of pregnant women and the fetus.

What should be paid attention to before induced abortion?

1. Regardless of the economic situation, it is necessary to choose a formal and professional hospital for production. Due to non-standard surgical techniques and hygiene in small clinics, it may cause hazards such as amniotic fluid embolism, postpartum injury, vaginal bleeding, and uterine infections. Ultrasound examination is required before pregnancy and delivery to check the size of the gestational sac and the position of the embryo.

2. Seize the delivery time

12-24 weeks of pregnancy is the optimal period for delivery, during which the placenta has formed, the fetus becomes larger, the bones become harder, and the cervix needs to be fully enlarged during delivery. The uterus enlarges, causing congestion and softening of the uterine wall. During surgery, it is easy to damage the uterine wall, making delivery difficult in the second trimester of pregnancy and resulting in many complications.
