How many weeks pregnant is it too late for an abortion?

Patient's question:

How long does it take to have an abortion? Which hospital specializes in abortions? What is the best time to have an abortion? I want to have a painless abortion, but I don't know when it would be better to do it. I've been pregnant for a month. I've always been healthy. Are there any risks for women who have abortions?

Doctor's answer:

As you know, this situation is related to early miscarriage in the uterus (uterine aspiration): it is suitable for those who are pregnant within 10 weeks. Dilation and curettage (D&C): applicable for early pregnancy between 11-14 weeks. To maintain good health, we should enhance nutrition, pay attention to rest, and maintain local hygiene of the vulva after miscarriage or D&C. To prevent infection, we should not engage in sexual activity for at least one month. We should also have regular follow-ups to closely monitor the uterine condition.
