Patient's question:
I am 27 years old. The last time I had sex with my boyfriend, we didn't use protection, and now I am pregnant. However, I don't want this child. I am considering an abortion. Is it possible to have a less harmful procedure?Doctor's answer:
Generally, medication abortion can be performed within 49 days of pregnancy, causing much less harm, but it also carries residual risks. It is recommended to visit a local regular hospital for follow-up examinations, including gynecological ultrasounds, related tests, and consultation on abortion methods. Afterward, attention should be paid to breastfeeding. Patients should develop good daily habits, maintain regular routines, avoid smoking and alcohol, and increase physical exercise to enhance their immunity and prevent recurrence of the condition.
