What are the contraceptive methods after abortion?

Today's society is becoming more and more open, especially for many young women who have richer lives. In life, we often hear that many girls have abortions after becoming pregnant. Abortion is very harmful to women and can cause menstrual irregularities, endocrine disorders, and infertility, etc. So many people have such questions: Do you still need to use contraception after abortion? Yes, you do need to use contraception. So what are the contraceptive methods after abortion? Let's take a look.

One of the contraceptive methods after abortion: intrauterine device placement

An intrauterine contraceptive device can be inserted immediately after an abortion, but it must be confirmed that there is no residue or infection. The placement of an intrauterine device after an induced abortion requires certain experience and technical skills from the doctor. If the patient is likely to be infected, the placement of the intrauterine device should be delayed until 3 months after the induced abortion. The placement of an intrauterine device may have a certain impact on the patient's life. The patient should not engage in heavy physical labor within 1 week after placement, and avoid sexual intercourse within 2 weeks. Within 3 months after placement, attention should be paid to whether the intrauterine device has fallen off when going to the toilet or taking a bath. The patient should go to the hospital for regular follow-up examinations.

Second method of contraception after abortion: long-acting contraceptive injection

After an artificial abortion, you can choose long-acting contraceptive injections for contraception. There are currently a variety of long-acting contraceptive injections used clinically in my country, but if this contraceptive method is used, women need to go to the hospital for injections regularly (depending on the different drugs, ranging from 1 to 3 months), which may bring inconvenience to women's lives, and there may be certain side effects after the injection, such as changes in menstruation.

The third method of contraception after abortion: subcutaneous implant

Before placing a subcutaneous implant for contraception, women should consult their doctor because placement may cause changes in menstruation, such as spotting, and this surgical procedure is expensive.

The contraceptive methods required at different stages and periods are also different. After miscarriage, contraception is still needed, but the contraceptive methods must take into account some of your own conditions and should be selected based on your own situation. Miscarriage is prone to cause some inflammation, so it is not recommended to use condoms as a contraceptive method. At the same time, miscarriage can easily cause endocrine disorders, and it is not advisable to use contraceptive pills as a contraceptive method.
