Is it painful to have a medication abortion after one month of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have just carefully checked that I am one month pregnant. Now I don't know what to do. Is it painful to have a medication abortion at one month pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

After getting pregnant, if you don't want the baby, you can decide to have medication abortion. However, before medication abortion, it is essential to have a thorough ultrasound examination to confirm that the gestational sac has entered the uterine cavity before taking any measures. During medication abortion, some discomfort may occur, but this also depends on the individual's sensitivity level. If you usually experience menstrual cramps, it is possible to have pain. If you don't usually have menstrual cramps, you are generally able to tolerate it.
