When a woman reaches her due date or exceeds the due date, but the fetus still shows no signs of birth, doctors will recommend that the woman undergo water bag induction to help the fetus be born. However, many women are not very familiar with water bag induced abortion. So, what is obstetric water bag induced abortion?
Obstetric water bag induction of labor is the treatment of placing a water bag on the uterine wall and membranes, using specialized mechanical dilation of the cervix to promote cervical maturation, induce uterine contractions, and help women give birth. Its principle is to stimulate contractions by promoting the maturation of water sacs, thereby triggering childbirth. The doctor will inject an appropriate amount of saline solution into the cervix of the female and slowly stimulate it, causing the cervix to undergo regular contractions.
Generally, water bag induced abortion is required when the cervical conditions in women are not yet mature. Water bag induced abortion can promote cervical maturation. If a woman's cervix is already mature, there is no need to choose water bag induced abortion. The risk of water bag induced abortion is relatively small, so it is still relatively safe. Women do not need to worry too much, as long as they cooperate with the doctor's operation, the induced abortion can basically be successful.
The time required for induction of labor with a water bag is not long. Generally, after placing the water bag, production can be carried out within 72 hours. However, due to different uterine contractions in women, the duration of induced labor also varies. However, not all women are suitable for water bag induced abortion, so it is necessary for women to consult professional doctors for specific details.
