Introduction
Inevitable abortion usually requires uterine evacuation. Inevitable abortion refers to the natural death or cessation of embryonic or fetal development during pregnancy, making continuation of the pregnancy impossible and necessitating medical intervention—either medication or surgery—under a doctor's guidance to remove the contents of the uterus. This condition is typically caused by factors such as genetic abnormalities in the embryo or fetus, maternal diseases, endocrine disorders, or external environmental influences.

  Dilation and curettage (D&C) is generally required for inevitable miscarriage.

  An inevitable miscarriage refers to the natural death or cessation of embryonic or fetal development during pregnancy, making it impossible to continue the pregnancy. Ultimately, the intrauterine contents must be removed under medical guidance through medication or surgery. This condition is usually caused by factors such as genetic abnormalities in the embryo or fetus, maternal illnesses, endocrine disorders, or external environmental influences.

  During the recovery period after a miscarriage, women should actively engage in mild physical exercises to strengthen their constitution. It is important to maintain balanced nutrition and consume sufficient vitamins and minerals. It is advisable to undergo relevant medical examinations and genetic counseling before conception, and only attempt pregnancy after thorough treatment. If a woman has a luteal phase that is too short or inadequate progesterone secretion, she may benefit from appropriate supplementation with progesterone during menstruation or early pregnancy.

  Additionally, patients should pay attention to personal hygiene in daily life, frequently change and wash undergarments, and maintain a cheerful mood, avoiding excessive emotional stress.
