Patient's question:
We are no longer young, we already have a child, and we are also very busy at work. Now, my wife unexpectedly got pregnant. She wants to have an abortion quickly because she is still in the early stages of pregnancy. I am a bit worried about her health. Hello, my wife is planning to have a medication abortion. Is medication abortion safe?Doctor's answer:
Medication abortion is generally safe. It is recommended that you take oral medication for an abortion under the guidance of a doctor. If there is heavy bleeding, you need to go to the hospital for follow-up. After the abortion, you can have an ultrasound to check if there is any residual placental tissue. If the abortion is incomplete, a D&C procedure is necessary. After the D&C, use antibiotics for anti-inflammatory treatment to prevent gynecological infections.
