Patient's question:
I am a 32-year-old woman. My husband and I started trying to conceive right after getting married, and now I am pregnant. I am very worried. Could you please tell me when is the best time to have a medication abortion during pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Generally, medical abortion is suitable for women with early pregnancy between 5-7 weeks, confirmed as intrauterine pregnancy through careful examination, aged under 40, and voluntarily requesting to terminate early pregnancy. Before the procedure, it is necessary to undergo an ultrasound examination at the hospital to determine the size of the gestational sac and the position of the embryo. The pregnant woman should not have any physical conditions, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, or diabetes. Avoid any psychological stress, maintain a positive mood, and ensure adequate rest during this period. Additionally, maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which are beneficial for both you and the fetus.
