Missed miscarriage is also a type of miscarriage, but the probability of occurrence is relatively low, so many female friends do not know what missed miscarriage means or how to deal with it when it occurs. So, what is missed abortion? What are the symptoms of missed abortion? What is the best abortion method for missed abortion?
1. Missed miscarriage symptoms
Missed miscarriage, also known as delayed miscarriage or stillbirth. Embryos that die but still remain in the uterine cavity, and the pregnancy products are generally excreted within 1-2 months after the onset of symptoms. Therefore, it is stipulated that if the embryo stops developing and is not naturally expelled within 2 months, it is called missed abortion.
2. Missed miscarriage symptoms
Firstly, missed miscarriage manifests as symptoms of threatened miscarriage, where the uterus no longer enlarges or instead shrinks. If it is already mid pregnancy and the pregnant woman does not feel abdominal enlargement or fetal movement, gynecological examination shows that the cervix is closed, the uterus is more than 2 months smaller than the gestational month, the texture is not soft, and no fetal heart rate is heard. Secondly, missed miscarriage manifests as abdominal pain. In early miscarriage, there may be blood, especially blood clots, in the uterine cavity that stimulate uterine contractions and cause persistent lower abdominal pain. In late miscarriage, there may be paroxysmal uterine contractions followed by placental abruption, resulting in abdominal pain before vaginal bleeding. Furthermore, there is the phenomenon of vaginal bleeding. In cases of miscarriage within 3 months of pregnancy, the villi and decidua begin to separate, and the sinusoids open, indicating the onset of bleeding. When the embryo is completely detached and expelled, the uterus contracts strongly, the sinusoids close, and bleeding stops.
3. Missed abortion treatment
It is recommended to perform curettage surgery for missed miscarriage, and to insert a uterine suction device into the uterine cavity without negative pressure. Then maintain negative pressure and perform repeated scraping and suction, with gentle movements throughout the entire process. If the suction head is blocked by tissue during suction, the tissue should be quickly removed before continuing suction. If there are no suction conditions, curettage can be performed. When suctioning the uterus, special attention should be paid to the corners and bottom of the uterus on both sides. If tissue is still felt, it can be scraped once with a curette. If the uterine wall is felt to have become rough and blood foam is observed in the suction bottle, the uterus will be significantly reduced, which means that the uterus has been emptied, and the operation can be ended.
