Patient's question:
My best friend is still working and doesn't want to have a child with her husband, but she accidentally got pregnant. She has never had an abortion before, but now it has been more than 40 days since she found out. She wants to know how much money is needed for medication abortion.Doctor's answer:
The best time for medication abortion is before 49 days of pregnancy, within one and a half months after the last menstrual period. At this time, the uterus is not yet significantly affected by early pregnancy tissue, and the fetus is also very small. As a result, the risks associated with medication abortion during the optimal period will be reduced. However, it is necessary to be hospitalized for close observation of how the pregnant woman's tissues are drained. Otherwise, an improper miscarriage may lead to severe bleeding. Given that the cost of medication abortion is relatively low—generally just a few hundred yuan—more and more women are choosing this option. In fact, medication abortion has specific indications and is only suitable for terminating early pregnancy at seven weeks, and there are no contraindications for medication abortion.
