Patient's question:
My best friend is pregnant, but she doesn't want the child and wants to have an abortion. Is it dangerous to have an abortion?Doctor's answer:
Taking medication to induce abortion carries certain risks. If you do not want to keep the pregnancy after becoming pregnant, you first need to have a thorough check with a color Doppler ultrasound to diagnose an intrauterine pregnancy. If the diagnosis confirms an intrauterine pregnancy within 49 days, you can consider a medication-induced abortion. Oral medication for abortion may lead to incomplete abortion, postpartum bleeding, and it is also easy to experience pelvic infection, anemia, irregular menstruation, or infertility after medication-induced abortion. It is recommended to keep the pregnancy if possible.
