Patient's question:
Accidentally got pregnant with a child I don't want to have, want to use medicine to abort the child. Ask the doctor what is the best time for medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
For women who become pregnant after conception and are advised to take mifepristone and misoprostol for medication-induced abortion, they can generally consider medication-induced abortion within 49 days after menopause. The optimal time for medication-induced abortion is usually around 45 days after menopause, because the relatively short duration of menopause allows for the simultaneous confirmation of ectopic pregnancy, resulting in a higher success rate for medication-induced abortion. If menopause occurs too early, it is often impossible to examine and confirm an intrauterine pregnancy, making medication-induced abortion infeasible.
