Patient's question:
Is it suitable to have medication abortion at two months of pregnancy? Is medication abortion better than surgical abortion? Which one is more suitable and safer? What is the best time for medication abortion? What is the process of medication abortion? How can one know if the abortion is complete? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, the timing for medication abortion is generally most appropriate within 50 days after a missed period. Therefore, it is advisable to schedule it appropriately, but pay close attention to rest and safety. It is necessary to arrange for an ultrasound as soon as possible to check the size of the gestational sac, and then consider the procedure. It is recommended to use the medication for one week and monitor the amount of bleeding, followed by a follow-up ultrasound. If there is a significant amount of residual tissue, it may be necessary to arrange for a D&C procedure and subsequent recovery.
