Can a Cesarean section choose medication abortion to be successful?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I am six months pregnant, and I have had a cesarean section before. Now I want to decide on medication abortion. I don't know if the success rate is high. Can a medication abortion be successful after a cesarean section?

Doctor's answer:

If you have had a cesarean section before, it is best not to get pregnant within 3 years. If you do get pregnant, the second option is medical abortion, as it has relatively fewer side effects and does not require a D&C procedure. Medical abortion is effective within 7 weeks of pregnancy, and it may not be successful with larger gestational sacs. It is recommended to visit the gynecology outpatient department of a local regular hospital for follow-up.
The daily treatment for cesarean section patients mainly involves symptomatic treatment. Patients can take many oral medications, supplement with various vitamins, and pay attention to self-care, proper diet, and avoid cold foods.
