What are the disadvantages of artificial abortion and medication abortion?

Patient's question:

I successfully breastfed with my boyfriend last month. This is my first pregnancy, but I don't want it. What are the harms of induced abortion and medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

The best time for a painless abortion is usually 35-50 days after conception. At this time, undergoing the surgery can reduce the risk of complications. It is recommended to have the procedure as early as possible. If the pregnancy is in its later stages, the fetal skeleton has already developed, and the uterus has undergone significant changes. The gestational sac is more likely to be ruptured, which can cause greater harm to the body. Preoperative examinations should be conducted to determine if the pregnancy is ectopic, and the appropriate abortion method should be decided accordingly. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions, you must inform the doctor, and the doctor will determine the most suitable abortion method based on their expertise. Medication abortion is a simpler and less psychologically traumatic alternative to surgical abortion, but it is not suitable for everyone.
