Patient's question:
I am a 31-year-old woman. My husband and I started trying to conceive right after getting married, and now I am pregnant. I am very worried. Is it safe to have a medication abortion at one month pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Medication abortion is suitable for early pregnancy within 49 days. Based on your pregnancy timeline, it is possible to consider medication abortion. However, the success rate of medication abortion is not high, and it may lead to incomplete abortion or other outcomes, requiring a D&C procedure, which can be quite painful. Overall, medication abortion is generally less safe and convenient than surgical abortion.I recommend you visit a hospital for a thorough examination and follow the guidance of a doctor to choose the appropriate method. Do not feel any psychological pressure and maintain a positive mood. During this period, it is important to get plenty of rest and maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods. This will benefit both you and your fetus.
