How long does an abortion take?

The abortion surgery can be completed in 2-3 minutes under normal circumstances. Although the abortion surgery is short, some routine examinations should be carried out before the operation, including ultrasound examination to know the size of the pregnancy sac and the location of the bed; routine leukorrhea examination to know whether there is any vaginal inflammation; routine blood examination and examination of infectious diseases, which include syphilis, hepatitis C, hepatitis B and AIDS. If the abortion is painless, an electrocardiogram will be performed. If there is no abnormality in the examination, the woman can choose painless abortion or ordinary abortion according to her own needs or the doctor’s suggestion. Painless abortion is a procedure in which the anesthesiologist pushes propofol quietly and the patient sleeps without pain, which is generally a safer procedure. If a woman has financial difficulties, she can also undergo a normal abortion, which usually takes 2-3 minutes and can be endured.
