After childbirth, often young mothers, focusing on the absence of menstruation, mistakenly relying on the contraceptive effect of breastfeeding, face the problem of another pregnancy. In this situation, a woman chooses an abortion, thinking that this is a fairly harmless event, and if an abortion is done at an early date, then there can be no talk of any danger at all. But is it really so?
Abortion is the termination of a pregnancy up to 22 weeks. Abortions are spontaneous (miscarriage) and artificial (by surgical or other intervention). Depending on the term of termination of pregnancy, artificial abortions are divided into early (termination of pregnancy for up to 12 weeks) and late (for more than 12 weeks). Abortions up to 12 weeks are performed at the request of the woman. At a later date, the decision on abortion based on the application of the pregnant woman is made by a commission that takes into account the available indications - medical (threat to the woman's health, severe malformations and non-viability of the fetus) and social (death or disability of 1-2 groups of the husband, large families, lack of housing, refugee status , unemployment, rape, unmarriage).
