Patient's question:
As a sophomore in college, I got pregnant unexpectedly after moving in with my boyfriend. I'm very scared. So, I want to go to the hospital I usually visit for medication abortion. I want to ask how to increase the success rate of medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
To improve the success rate of medication-induced abortion, it is generally recommended to engage in more activity during the intake of mifepristone and misoprostol to facilitate the prompt expulsion of the gestational sac with the help of gravity. It is advised to walk more and climb stairs frequently. Additionally, drinking more water can promote metabolism, thereby accelerating the expulsion of the gestational sac and increasing the success rate. Attention should be paid to local hygiene to prevent infection. Post-procedure, contraception should be observed for at least six months.
