Patient's question:
Hello, is it better to have medication abortion or surgical abortion? How much does surgical abortion cost approximately, and how much does medication abortion cost approximately?Doctor's answer:
Before undergoing medication abortion, it is necessary to have a thorough B examination to first rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. Secondly, the size of the gestational sac must be measured; if it is less than 2.3 centimeters, medication abortion is not suitable. Additionally, the entire process of medication abortion is relatively long, requiring the patient to take medication for 2 or 3 days, followed by taking an opening cervix medication at the hospital on the day of the miscarriage. The patient must then be observed in the hospital for several hours, and a doctor will verify whether the gestational sac has been expelled from the body. One thing to note is that medication abortion has a 5% failure rate. Even if it is successful, it may still be necessary to undergo an abortion procedure to correct the outcome.
