Patient's question:
I am pregnant for the first time, and it has been about three weeks. However, we do not want the child right now. After reading articles about abortion, it is recommended that for a first-time pregnancy, medication abortion is preferable as it causes less harm to the body. Could you please tell me if there is pain during the medication abortion process?Doctor's answer:
Medical abortion is suitable for early pregnancy within 50 days. Before taking the medication, an ultrasound examination is required to determine the size of the gestational sac and rule out ectopic pregnancy. Follow the doctor's instructions to take mifepristone and misoprostol regularly. During the medication period, you may experience abdominal pain and bleeding. Generally, after taking misoprostol on the last day, the gestational sac will gradually be expelled within a few hours. If you have an occasional miscarriage, it is important to rest and recover. The bleeding is usually minimal and does not cause significant harm to your body. However, it is essential to use safe measures in the future. Multiple miscarriages can cause damage to your body.
