Can abortion cause infertility?
Female InfertilityAnswer
When an abortion is performed safely in a proper medical facility by trained doctors, like at SCI Hospital, it is very unlikely to cause infertility. Complications from a safe, legal abortion that could affect future fertility are rare. The risk of issues arises mainly if an abortion is done unsafely, which could lead to serious infections like Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) or significant scarring inside the uterus. These complications, though much less common with safe procedures, could potentially impact future fertility.
