How many weeks pregnant can you have an abortion

Patient's question:

I work in Beijing with her, and we haven't earned much. Accidentally, we got pregnant. I want to have an abortion. How many weeks pregnant can you do an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

The time of pregnancy is calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period. For normal intrauterine pregnancy, medication abortion can be performed within 7 weeks of pregnancy, and induced abortion can be performed within 10 weeks. The best time for induced abortion is between 6 and 8 weeks of pregnancy. If it is less than 6 weeks, the surgical difficulty may increase, and if it is more than 8 weeks, it may cause greater damage to the uterus. In the early stages of pregnancy, if an abortion is to be terminated, it is necessary to first go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination to confirm intrauterine pregnancy before choosing medication abortion or induced abortion.
