The uterus is known as the “palace of the fetus” and the “cradle of life”. However, the uterus usually suffers from many “fatal injuries” during a woman’s life. Statistics show that about 20% of women over the age of 30 have fibroids and 20% have functional uterine bleeding. Globally, about 1/4 of women under 30 years old will contract uterine diseases every year. It is important to remind everyone that to care for women’s health, we must first take care of the uterus.
Repeated abortions – the number one killer of the uterus
When women enter their reproductive years, the uterus also begins to enter the “eventful season”.
The uterus often suffers from “five fatal injuries”: 1.
1, repeated miscarriages, especially abortion. Each scrape will make the uterine lining thinner, but also cause pelvic inflammatory disease, acute tubitis, etc., and in serious cases can lead to infertility; the shorter the interval between abortions, the greater the damage.
2, multiple pregnancies, each additional pregnancy, the uterus a little more risk. More than 3 pregnancies, the possibility of uterine disorders and the occurrence of harm will increase significantly.
3, neglect prenatal checkups, neglect regular maternity checkups, which may lead to serious consequences such as obstructed labor or even uterine rupture.
4, unclean sex, which will make many bacteria through the vagina into the uterine cavity, causing infection.
5.Sexual life disorder, or start sexual life too early.
Repeated abortion is a completely avoidable “mistake”
Among the “five deadly wounds”, repeated abortion can be said to be a “mistake” that can be completely avoided. Nowadays, many young women do not pay attention to contraception, thinking that they are young and healthy, even if an unplanned pregnancy occurs, “abort” will be fine. Nowadays, the propaganda about “painless abortion” is also very common, which has created an illusion that abortion is a small operation that can be done as often as you want. What is the truth?
About 4.5%-4.8% of women of childbearing age in China suffer from infertility, of which more than 70% are due to improper abortion. A large amount of clinical data shows that the number of abortions is directly proportional to the chance of infertility. In addition, inappropriate abortion can lead to post-operative cervical or uterine cavity adhesions, abnormal menstruation, and distant complications such as inflammation; miscarriage, premature birth, and ectopic pregnancy may occur when pregnant again; and in serious cases, it can be life-threatening.
In fact, the trauma caused by repeated abortions can be completely avoided, the key is to choose a protective measure that suits you.
Protect yourself, starting from choosing the right contraceptive method
For women who have just gotten married and have no intention of getting pregnant in two or three years, the choice of contraceptive method should be simple, easy to grasp, and does not bring about future pregnancy, such as the use of condoms. In addition, short-acting oral contraceptive pills are also a good choice. Nowadays, the short-acting oral contraceptive pill has a very low hormonal dose, and as long as it is taken on time, it can achieve the purpose of suppressing ovulation and preventing pregnancy, with an efficiency rate of 99%.
Three steps to stay away from abortion damage
If abortion is the last resort, experts remind women to pay attention to the following three aspects to stay away from abortion damage.
Step 1: Undergo regular surgery. Some women find that after an unplanned pregnancy to save money for private medical abortion, or to unlicensed small clinics to do abortion, which invariably lay a hidden danger to their own life safety. You must go to a regular hospital to receive regular surgery to minimize the damage.
The second step: the combination of work and rest. After the abortion, you must follow the medical advice to rest and recuperation. Do not rush to work, rush to do housework, so as not to strain and hurt your body.
The third step: insist on contraception. Once menstruation resumes after an abortion, the uterus will start to ovulate again, which means there is a possibility of pregnancy again. Women should take reliable contraceptive measures as soon as possible, do not let themselves “hurt again and again”.
