Patient's question:
I discovered something quite shocking yesterday, which is that I'm pregnant. I have no idea who the child belongs to, so I want to consider having an abortion to terminate the pregnancy. Which is better, medication abortion or surgical abortion?Doctor's answer:
Medication abortion is generally suitable for early pregnancy within 49 days, with a complete abortion rate of about 93%. The side effects are usually nausea, dry heaving, lower abdominal pain, and fatigue.After taking the medication, it is important to closely monitor any changes. If the medication abortion is successful, surgical uterine evacuation should be performed promptly. The most significant side effect of medication abortion is the possibility of prolonged bleeding, with the amount of bleeding gradually increasing.
Manual abortion is suitable for pregnancy within 12 weeks, and there is now a painless manual abortion option. Since I do not know your gestational age, I recommend you visit a hospital and consult with a doctor to determine the best abortion plan under medical guidance!
