Patient's question:
I don't want children, but I still got pregnant unexpectedly, so I want to have a medication abortion. I want to ask why blood tests are required before medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
Not everyone is suitable for medication abortion, as medication may lead to excessive bleeding, damage to liver and kidney function, and irritation of the gastrointestinal tract. If there are other conditions such as anemia, autoimmune disorders, or abnormal liver and kidney function, medication abortion is not recommended. Therefore, blood tests are required. If these tests are normal, medication abortion can be considered. The medication for medication abortion must be taken on an empty stomach. After the procedure, it is strictly forbidden to have sexual activity for one month.
