Patient's question:
Hello, what medication can cause miscarriage. How long should one wait after getting pregnant to have an abortion for the best health outcome?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if you become pregnant, it's best to have an abortion without anesthesia. If the medication abortion is incomplete, you may need a uterine curettage. Medication abortion is suitable for early pregnancy. Before undergoing medication abortion, a B examination must be performed to first rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy; second, the size of the gestational sac must be measured, and medication abortion is not suitable if the gestational sac is less than 2.3 centimeters. Additionally, the entire process of medication abortion is relatively long, requiring you to take medication for 2 or 3 days, followed by taking an opening cervix medication at the hospital on the day of the miscarriage. Afterward, you need to be carefully observed in the hospital for several hours, and the doctor will verify whether the gestational sac has been expelled from your body. One thing to note is that medication abortion has a 5% failure rate. Even if it is successful, an abortion surgery may still be required to correct it.
