Patient's question:
I just started dating, but I haven't graduated yet. I'm living with my boyfriend and have a child. I can't let my family know. I don't know whether to choose medication abortion or surgical abortion. My friend said surgical abortion is very expensive, and I'm so worried. What tests do I need to take before medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
It should be determined through an ultrasound that the pregnancy is intrauterine, and it should be done within 49 days of pregnancy. For health and safety, after medication abortion, nutrition should be increased, rest should be paid attention to, and the condition of vaginal bleeding should be noted. Sexual activity should not be engaged in for at least one month, and local hygiene of the external genitalia should be paid attention to to avoid infection. Regular follow-up should be conducted to observe whether it is clean and whether the uterus has recovered, and medication abortion can only be chosen after excluding ectopic pregnancy.
