Can you still have an abortion at 10 weeks pregnant?

Patient's question:

Just found out about the pregnancy, and now I'm already 10 weeks pregnant. I want to ask if it's still possible to have an abortion? I already have two children and don't want any more kids. This one was an accident. Is it not a good idea to have an abortion at 10 weeks?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, the term "" refers to a surgical procedure using negative pressure to induce an abortion. This method is primarily used to terminate early intrauterine pregnancy within 70 days. Currently, you are 10 weeks pregnant, which is exactly 70 days. You can go to the hospital immediately to undergo an abortion procedure. If it is less than 70 days, the hospital usually no longer performs an abortion but may require a forceps dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure, or wait until the pregnancy reaches 12 weeks to undergo a mid-trimester induction abortion.
