Painless abortion is a common method of abortion, and many women end their pregnancy through painless abortion after an unexpected pregnancy. After deciding to undergo painless abortion, women should grasp the timing of the abortion. If the abortion time is not appropriate, it will affect the effectiveness of the abortion. So, how early can painless abortion be done?
Women who want to undergo painless abortion usually need to undergo B-ultrasound examination around 6 weeks of pregnancy to confirm that it is an intrauterine pregnancy. Therefore, painless abortion should be performed as early as 5 weeks of pregnancy. At this stage, the gestational sac can be seen in the uterine cavity. If painless abortion is performed too early, it is easy to cause leakage due to the small size of the gestational sac in the uterine cavity.
Painless abortion usually does not feel pain because intravenous anesthesia is administered before the surgery. After the anesthesia takes effect, women will enter a sleep state and therefore do not feel pain. About half an hour after anesthesia, women will naturally wake up, and the surgery is usually completed. There may be slight abdominal pain after the surgery.
Women should rest for at least a week after painless abortion, and if conditions permit, it is best to rest for a month. During this period, women can engage in appropriate activities, which are beneficial for promoting gastrointestinal peristalsis. They should eat more high-quality protein foods to promote body recovery, and also pay attention to personal hygiene to avoid bacterial infections.
