Patient's question:
Is the harm from painless abortion less than that from medication abortion? It's difficult to know which medicine to use for treatment. This condition has not improved, and I'm quite worried about my health. My family is also very concerned.Doctor's answer:
Hello: Generally, medication abortion is suitable for pregnancies within 49 days. Medication abortion causes less harm to the uterus but there is a possibility of incomplete abortion, in which case a follow-up D&C may be necessary. For surgical abortion, you can choose a visual painless procedure, which causes minimal harm to the uterus. It usually has no side effects. It is recommended to rest and maintain proper nutrition after the surgery, avoid spicy, fried, and other irritating foods. Strictly avoid sexual intercourse and tub baths for one month. Pay attention to keeping the external genitalia clean. Wishing you good health!
