Manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) is a safe, outpatient medical procedure used to terminate a pregnancy or evacuate the uterus in cases of incomplete miscarriage or failed medication. The MVA method has a 98% success rate. At our center, we perform the procedure under strict ultrasound guidance.
What is AMEU?
It is performed by inserting a thin cannula into the uterus through the cervix.
This cannula connects to a special syringe that generates a vacuum, allowing the uterine contents to be removed gently and in a controlled manner.
What does it consist of?
The procedure usually lasts between 5 and 10 minutes.
Afterwards, the person remains under observation for a short time and can leave the same day.
How long does it last?
Yes. Local anesthesia is applied to the cervix to prevent discomfort.
In some cases, medication may be offered to help you relax or reduce pain.
Is anesthesia used?
During the procedure, you may feel menstrual-like cramps, which gradually decrease after the procedure.
What does it feel like?
Yes. When performed by trained personnel and with sterile materials, MVA is a safe method and recommended by the WHO.
Serious complications are very rare.
Is it safe?
Rest for the rest of the day.
Avoid sexual intercourse, tampons, or vaginal douches for a few days.
Medical check-up once a week or as directed by the team.
What aftercare is needed?
You can resume your usual activities the next day.
Fertility returns quickly, so it's important to get guidance on contraceptive methods if you wish.
