Is there a risk of medication abortion after being pregnant for over 70 days?

Patient's question:

It's actually quite difficult. May I ask if there are risks involved in taking medication for an abortion when you are more than 70 days pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

You are within 49 days of your period, and the normal size of the intrauterine pregnancy sac is 1.0~2.0 centimeters, you can take medication to induce a small abortion. If the pregnancy sac size is between 2.0~3.0 centimeters at 69 days, an induced abortion can be performed. Based on your description, you need to go to the hospital for an MRI examination to check the position of the pregnancy sac. If the pregnancy sac is too large, it may not be fully expelled and may require hospitalization for induction of labor.
