Patient's question:
I am 18 years old this year. Yesterday, I found out that I am pregnant and I don't dare to let anyone know. I secretly bought some medicine to take. Can taking only mifepristone pills for medication abortion leave things clean?Doctor's answer:
Medication-induced abortion requires oral mifepristone and misoprostol; taking only mifepristone is not sufficient. It is essential to use medication properly. You must undergo thorough examinations at a reputable hospital to ensure all indicators are appropriate before deciding on medication-induced abortion, as the risks are relatively high otherwise. After the procedure, you should rest for at least one week, and a follow-up check-up should be scheduled after half a month to confirm whether the miscarriage is complete. You cannot engage in sexual activity for at least one month to avoid infection. A B is necessary to confirm that the gestational sac has moved into the uterine cavity before medication can be administered. Taking only the first dose of medication is unlikely to result in complete expulsion.
