What situation is called an induced abortion surgery?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I am 25 years old this year and have been pregnant for three months. Recently, I heard about an abortion procedure, but I don't know what it is. I would like to understand it better, so I would like to consult the doctor about what an abortion procedure is?

Doctor's answer:

An induced abortion procedure generally refers to a surgical intervention to terminate early pregnancy between 15 and 27 weeks of gestation. It can involve options such as transcervical suction (water bag abortion), intramural amniotic cavity anesthesia with ritodrine for abortion, or the oral administration of mifepristone combined with misoprostol to terminate the pregnancy.
Between 11 and 14 weeks of gestation, a Dilation and Curettage (D&C) procedure may be chosen to terminate the pregnancy.
In addition to treatment, it is important to maintain a light diet and a positive mood. Only with a good mindset and adequate rest can you recover more quickly and distance yourself from the illness.
