For a woman, there are two major events in her life. The first is to marry a good man, and the second is to have a healthy baby. With the rapid development of society, people's thinking is becoming more and more advanced, and young people's thinking is becoming more and more open. However, at the same time, many young people make mistakes and do not take care of their bodies at a young age, resulting in early pregnancy. Can an 18-year-old girl get pregnant? What should I pay attention to when having an abortion?
Can a woman get pregnant at the age of 18?
1. Pregnancy is possible, and it is recommended to go to the hospital for prenatal diagnosis between 12-20 weeks of pregnancy, including ultrasound examination of fetal limb and organ development, chromosome karyotyping analysis, biochemical analysis, and genetic testing analysis to rule out fetal developmental abnormalities
2. The age of pregnancy is a bit early, but it generally does not cause the baby to be unintelligent. Regular check ups are recommended
3. If the child does not want it and discovers it early, they can choose to have an induced abortion for the sake of their future life.
What should be paid attention to after an abortion?
1. Pay attention to rest and strengthen nutrition. After abortion, patients should rest in bed for 2-3 days, and then get out of bed to gradually increase their activity time. Pay attention to increasing nutrition, eat more protein rich foods such as fish, meat, eggs, legumes, and fresh vegetables rich in vitamins.
2. Keep the external genitalia clean and strictly prohibit sexual intercourse. After an abortion, the cervix is not completely closed and the endometrium undergoes a process of repair. During this period, special attention should be paid to maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of the external genitalia. The sanitary pads and underwear used should be washed and changed frequently, and sitz baths should be avoided within half a month after the operation to prevent dirty water from entering the vagina and causing infection.
3. Observe the bleeding situation. If there is vaginal bleeding for more than a week after an abortion, and even accompanied by lower abdominal pain, fever, cloudy and foul smelling vaginal discharge, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly.
Although pregnancy is an important event in a woman's life, it is still important for young children to take good care of their bodies and do the right things at the right time. If you get pregnant at the age of 18, don't be blindly afraid. Tell your parents and ask them to help you find a solution and make a relatively correct decision. I hope the above answers can help you.
