Question Hi, I have an appointment for a surgical abortion for this Friday. I am possibly sure about my decision just worried about some things. My most fears are the pain and will effect in anyway of wanting to get pregnant in the future? What can the pain be compared to?
Answer Hi dear Liz,
the pain - after sedation and local anesthesia - is almost nothing.
Afterwards you may notice cramps of the period type.
An abortion - in a clinical setting by a doctor - has no influence
on your fertility. So please no worry !
Bests !
Dr Shan
