Patient's question:
My girlfriend is 23 years old this year. Last month, she accidentally got pregnant because she didn't take precautions. We are not ready for a child yet, so we chose to have an abortion. Hello, how long after pregnancy is it best to have a medication abortion? Will there be other sequelae?Doctor's answer:
Pregnant, if you haven't planned to have a baby and are considering taking medication for an abortion, it's best to decide within 49 days of pregnancy. Before undergoing medication abortion, it's important to first go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to confirm that it is an intrauterine pregnancy. Only then can the medication abortion be carried out. After medication abortion, pay close attention to the expulsion of fetal tissue. If you suspect that the fetal tissue hasn't been completely expelled, it's best to promptly go to the hospital for a follow-up ultrasound examination.
