Antibiotics can treat infections but, in rare cases, a repeat suction abortion, hospitalization and/or surgery may be required.Incomplete abortion risks: An incomplete abortion outlines that part of the fetus, or other products of pregnancy (placenta), may not drain completely from the uterus, requiring further medical procedures. This may result in infection and bleeding.Blood clots in the uterus: Blood clots that produce severe cramping can also occur. The clots usually are removed by a repeat surgical abortion procedure.Heavy bleeding: Some bleeding is typical after an abortion. Heavy bleeding (hemorrhaging) is not common and may be treated by repeat suction (surgical abortion), medication or, rarely, surgery. Be sure to ask your doctor to explain heavy bleeding and what to do if it happens.Cut or torn cervix: The opening of the uterus (cervix) may be torn because the abortionist must stretch it open to allow medical instruments to pass into the uterus during surgical abortion procedures. Puncture/Tear of the wall of the uterus: A medical instrument can cut through the wall of the uterus during a suction abortion procedure. Perforation can lead to infection, heavy bleeding or both, depending on the severity of the cut. Surgery may be required to repair the uterine tissue, and in serious cases, a hysterectomy (surgical removal of the uterus) may be required.Anesthesia-related complications: As with other surgical procedures, anesthesia increases the risk of complications associated with abortion. Due to these risks, many surgical abortion procedures are completed without benefit of anesthesia which can entail a great deal of physical pain to the woman. Rh Immune Globulin Therapy: Genetic material found on the surface of a woman’s red blood cells are known as the Rh Factor. If a woman and her fetus have different Rh factors, she must receive medication to prevent the development of antibodies that would endanger future pregnancies.Scar tissue on the uterine wall. A surgical abortion can result in the growth of scar tissue in the uterus, a condition known as Asherman’s syndrome. This can lead to abnormal, absent or painful menstrual cycles, future miscarriages and infertility.Types of AbortionMedical abortion:A woman takes medication in early pregnancy to abort the fetus. Done up until nine weeks of gestationSurgical abortionFetus is removed from the uterus – typically with a vacuum device, a syringe or a spoon-shaped instrument with a sharp edge (curet) – as a surgical procedure (also called “suction curettage”).D&E (Dilatation and evacuation) abortionProcedure is done after 12 weeks of pregnancy.

Examples of teen getting abortionStory from an employee from planned parenthoodAt first, the baby didn’t seem aware of the cannula. It gently probed the baby’s side, and for a quick second I felt relief. Of course, I thought. The fetus doesn’t feel pain. I had reassured countless women of this as I’d been taught by Planned Parenthood. The fetal tissue feels nothing as it is removed. Get a grip, Abby. This is a simple, quick medical procedure. My head was working hard to control my responses, but I couldn’t shake an inner disquiet that was quickly mounting to horror as I watched the screen. The next movement was the sudden jerk of a tiny foot as the baby started kicking, as if it were trying to move away from the probing invader. As the cannula pressed its side, the baby began struggling to turn and twist away. It seemed clear to me that it could feel the cannula, and it did not like what it was feeling. … My eyes shot back to the screen again. The cannula was already being rotated by the doctor, and now I could see the tiny body violently twisting with it. For the briefest moment the baby looked as if it were being wrung like a dishcloth, twirled and squeezed. And then it crumpled and began disappearing into the cannula before my eyes. The last thing I saw was the tiny, perfectly formed backbone sucked into the tube, and then it was gone.Once the cervix is dilated, the abortionist inserts tubing into the uterus and attaches the tubing to a suction machine. Suction pulls apart the fetus’ body and out the uterus. After suction, the doctor and nurses must reassemble the fetus’ dismembered parts to ensure they have all the pieces.The force of suction literally tears the baby’s body apartGraphic pictures here Connection between mother and babyRecent studies show that a baby’s physical state is somehow linked to the mother’s psychological state.Ex: If a mother’s mood changes during pregnancy, for example from healthy to depressive, the baby does less well than a woman who has had a constant mental state throughout pregnancyThus, although a baby is a seperate living entity, it is very closely linked to the mother, so when her baby is aborted, it may have a big psychological impact on the mother.If Christian: Biblically sinning; you are killing a human baby who God has brought to life for a reason.At the moment of conception, a fetus is alive and a human (images as proof)“ it is not a certain chemical combination that makes an unborn child live, but the breath that God has breathed into him, and nobody can know when that takes place.”“For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.” Psalm 139:13-16.
