Can you still use medication for an abortion if you are three months pregnant?

Patient's question:

I am three months pregnant, and when I went to the hospital for prenatal care, the doctor said that my baby was not developing well and recommended an abortion. However, I've heard that undergoing an abortion is very painful. In the past, people told me that medication-induced abortion is less painful. Now that I am more than three months pregnant, if the medication-induced abortion is not completely effective, won't I have to endure more suffering? I am very conflicted. Can I still have a medication-induced abortion since I am three months pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

If the pronunciation issues are due to him, then there is no need to overthink it. Although an abortion can be harmful to the body and painful, a healthy fetus is too important for a family to take risks. An abortion is necessary in this case. Medical abortion is only suitable for accidental pregnancies within 49 days of gestation. Since it has already been three months, it is no longer suitable to use the medical abortion method. This point must be clearly understood.
