Diagnosis & Procedure
Diagnosis
To establish the duration and type of pregnancy, the OB-GYN advises a pelvic ultrasound (such as for a normal, ectopic, or molar pregnancy). Also, the OB-GYN may order blood and urine testing to determine whether you are anemic or have any other medical issues such as diabetes, high or low blood pressure, or sexually transmitted illnesses. This allows the clinician to guarantee that there are no difficulties during or after the abortion.
Procedure
To establish the duration and type of pregnancy, the OB-GYN advises a pelvic ultrasound (such as normal, ectopic, or molar pregnancy). Also, the OB-GYN may order blood and urine testing to determine whether you are anemic or have any other medical issues such as diabetes, high/low blood pressure, or sexually transmitted illnesses. This benefit will ensure that there are no difficulties during or after the abortion.
When a medicinal abortion fails, a pregnancy lasts more than nine weeks, or a miscarriage becomes incomplete, the obstetrician-gynecologist will employ surgical tools to terminate the pregnancy.
The patient is first sedated by the obstetrician-gynecologist. The patient is not in pain or discomfort during the whole surgical abortion procedure because of the anesthetic.
During the procedure, the OB-GYN dilates the cervix, inserts a tiny suction tube into the uterus, and utilises suction to completely remove the embryo and pregnant tissue from the uterus.
