Patient's question:
Before you have a medication abortion, what are the precautions you need to take and what tests do you need to have? If you choose a D&C, which is more harmful: D&C or medical abortion? Is medication abortion safe for your current condition? Hello, what should you pay attention to before having a medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it is recommended to have an MRI before taking medication to confirm if it is an intrauterine pregnancy.Advice: Medical abortion is generally effective within 49 days. You can calculate whether this is the appropriate time. As for Dilation and Curettage (D&C) and induced abortion, both involve scraping the uterus, so they are quite similar. Therefore, I suggest you consider a direct induced abortion. If the medical abortion is not completely effective, another scraping may still be necessary. It’s better to address it all at once.
Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
