Patient's question:
I am currently pregnant within 49 days and want to consider medication abortion. I'm a bit worried, afraid it might not be complete, and then I might need a follow-up procedure. What is the success rate of medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
Any abortion surgery is harmful to the body. Medical abortion may cause abnormal bleeding, incomplete abortion, or the possibility of abortion failure. The success rate of medical abortion is around 75%. The shorter the gestational age, the higher the success rate of medical abortion. It is recommended to undergo a check-up first to determine if there are any contraindications and if medical abortion is suitable for you. After two weeks, follow up to ensure that the abortion is complete.
