Many doctors advise women who want to terminate their pregnancy to do so as early as possible, as early termination causes less damage to the female body, faster postoperative recovery, and is less likely to cause complications. However, as the gestational age increases, it becomes less easy for women to terminate their pregnancy and they need to be prepared accordingly. So, what do you need for a 14 week abortion?
Women who are more than 12 weeks pregnant can only undergo induced abortion surgery to terminate their pregnancy, because the placenta has already formed after 12 weeks of pregnancy, and the fetus has developed significantly and its bones have become harder. If an abortion is performed at this time, it will increase the female's physical pain and the degree of danger during the surgical process. Therefore, according to the regulations of the national family planning department, women who are more than 12 weeks pregnant and want to terminate their pregnancy need to apply for an induced abortion certificate from the family planning bureau where their household registration is located.
Women must go to the hospital for relevant examinations before induced abortion. Routine examinations such as temperature measurement, pulse, blood pressure, electrocardiogram, blood routine, urine routine, vaginal discharge routine examination, etc., as well as B-ultrasound examination and gynecological examination, etc. At the same time, doctors will inquire about some medical history to prevent any impact on induced abortion surgery. For women with inflammation problems, or those who are pregnant for a long time or have cervical dysplasia, certain medications need to be given before surgery.
Within one week before induced abortion, sexual intercourse must be prohibited, and personal hygiene must be maintained to prevent infection. Induced abortion between 12 and 24 weeks of pregnancy is called mid pregnancy induced abortion, which mainly uses two methods: water bag induced abortion or medication induced abortion. After the induced abortion surgery, women must pay attention to rest, strengthen nutrition, pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene, and observe their physical recovery. If there are any abnormalities, they need to seek medical attention immediately.
