Abortion is the termination of unwanted pregnancy, and there are two types of abortions: medical abortion and surgical abortion. Medical abortion, also called medical termination of pregnancy, involves the usage of medicines or a combination of drugs to terminate the pregnancy. Surgical abortion, also known as surgical termination of pregnancy, is a procedure during which the obstetrician-gynecologist uses surgical instruments to remove the pregnancy from the uterus.
Surgical Abortion - Diagnosis and Procedure
Diagnosis
The OB-GYN recommends pelvic ultrasound to confirm the duration and type of pregnancy (such as normal, ectopic, or molar pregnancy.) In addition, the OB-GYN also recommends blood and urine tests to check if you are anemic or have any other medical conditions, such as diabetes, high/low blood pressure, or sexually transmitted diseases. This helps the doctor ensure there is no risk of complications during or after abortion.

When medical abortion fails, pregnancy exceeds nine weeks, or miscarriage becomes incomplete, the obstetrician-gynecologist uses surgical instruments to end the pregnancy.
First, the obstetrician-gynecologist gives anesthesia to the patient. Due to anesthesia, the patient doesn’t feel pain or discomfort during the entire surgical abortion process.
During the process, the OB-GYN dilates the cervix, places a small suction tube inside the uterus, and uses the suction to remove embryo and pregnancy tissue from the uterus altogether.

In some cases, women decide to go for abortions if the pregnancy is harmful to their health. This happens if the woman has diabetes, hypertension, obesity, or other medical conditions like ectopic pregnancy (a condition in which the fetus grows inside the fallopian tubes instead of the uterus).
