What should be paid attention to when taking medication for induced abortion during hospitalization?

Patient's question:

I'm preparing not to have this child, preparing to do medication abortion. Hello, what are the matters needing attention for inpatient medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

The medication abortion is used to terminate an intrauterine pregnancy within 49 days. Medication abortion typically involves taking mifepristone and misoprostol orally in sequence. First, take mifepristone, and then take misoprostol as a single dose at the end. It is important to note that after taking the medication, the gestational sac will be expelled approximately 2-6 hours later. Carefully check whether what is expelled is the gestational sac and whether it is complete. You can rinse it with clean water; the true gestational sac cannot be washed away. Additionally, pay attention to the amount of bleeding after the gestational sac is expelled to prevent excessive bleeding from occurring again.
