Patient's question:
I have a delayed period and took a pregnancy test. How long after getting pregnant can I have an abortion?Doctor's answer:
Within 49 days of pregnancy, medication abortion is possible. Between 42 and 70 days of pregnancy, surgical abortion can be performed. Generally, if you are 6 to 8 weeks pregnant, you can go to the hospital for a small procedure, but it is necessary to have a B at the hospital to confirm an intrauterine pregnancy before undergoing the procedure. If your menstrual cycle is regular and you have missed your period for 6 days, you can go to the hospital for a B to check carefully. If it is confirmed to be an intrauterine pregnancy, you can schedule a small procedure. Generally, within 7 weeks of a missed period, medication abortion can be performed, but the probability of incomplete medication abortion is relatively high. It is recommended to go to a regular public hospital for a thorough examination and to schedule a small abortion. After the procedure, it is necessary to pay attention to resting for half a month and undergoing a B re-examination once. It is strictly forbidden to have sexual intercourse for one month.
