Xiaofang, only 17 years old, found out she was pregnant and did not tell anyone. She secretly bought abortion pills from a drugstore. After taking the medication, she experienced continuous vaginal bleeding that lasted intermittently for a month. Xiaofang, who was previously physically strong, developed anemia as a result and often felt pain in her lower abdomen. She has no confidence regarding her future fertility.
In response to this situation, authoritative gynecological experts have stated that many girls become pregnant before marriage due to impulsive emotional decisions during relationships. Afraid of being discovered, these girls are unable to speak about their private matters. Some of them refuse to go to the hospital for an abortion and instead seek help from folk "doctors" or "local physicians" for private abortions, or directly buy abortion pills from drugstores and take them on their own. This can lead to serious consequences, even endangering lives.
People without medical knowledge do not understand the anatomy of reproductive organs, nor do they know the techniques of manual abortions, and lack proper medical equipment. They blindly proceed, resulting in incomplete abortions, uterine perforation, and even severe complications such as heavy bleeding and bowel rupture. Without timely rescue, there is a risk to life.
Some girls who privately undergo abortions encounter problems but dare not speak up, only seeking treatment at hospitals when their conditions become critical. This causes some people to lose the opportunity for rescue and tragically lose their lives, while others suffer from serious aftereffects that leave lifelong regrets.
According to statistics, every year in the country, over 20% of women who undergo unsafe terminations experience major bleeding, uterine perforation, gynecological infections, infertility, and other aftereffects. Approximately 60,000 early-pregnancy women die due to unsafe termination procedures.
Therefore, the gynecological experts at Changchun Minimally Invasive Gynecology remind women: If you unexpectedly become pregnant, do not casually go to small clinics for abortions or self-administer medication to terminate the pregnancy. Choose a hospital with strong safety measures, skilled and experienced operators, and good medical ethics. Do not let corrective measures cause further harm; safety should be the primary consideration when undergoing surgery.
