Can't have the pregnancy anymore, can I have an abortion?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I am 37 years old, female, and 7 months pregnant. Can I still have an abortion? I ask if it's possible to have an abortion if the pregnancy cannot be carried to term.

Doctor's answer:

If the pregnancy is less than 6 months, it is not allowed to have an abortion. If the fetus has developmental abnormalities, it should be aborted early to resolve the issue. An abortion must be done in the hospital using abortion medication to terminate the pregnancy. It is not possible to have an abortion at home because there are no medical instruments available. Pay attention to strengthening contraceptive measures. Under the guidance of a doctor, use appropriate contraceptive methods or sterilization measures to prevent accidental pregnancy again. Frequent induced abortions can increase the risk of gynecological diseases and may even lead to infertility, severely endangering health.
