Patient's question:
I've been pregnant for 4 months, but I don't want to continue because I can't stand living with my husband. Can I have an abortion at 4 months of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
You cannot have an abortion at four months of pregnancy. Abortions can only be performed around 70 days of pregnancy. If you are four months pregnant and do not want to continue, you can only have an induction abortion, which includes medication-induced abortion or cervical balloon abortion. Medication-induced abortion involves taking mifepristone orally in combination with other medications. Additionally, there is amniotic cavity anesthesia with ritodrine for induction abortion. Oxytocin can also be used for induction abortion.
