Can you take medicine or have an abortion after being pregnant for one month?

Patient's question:

I got pregnant due to having sex with my boyfriend last month, but we are still young and neither our work nor our lives are stable yet. Therefore, we do not want to keep this child and are considering an abortion. However, we don't have much money, so we are thinking about taking medication for an abortion. For this reason, I would like to consult whether it is possible to have an abortion with medication after being pregnant for one month.

Doctor's answer:

In your case, you need to go to the hospital for a check-up and have a color ultrasound to confirm an intrauterine pregnancy before scheduling an abortion. Generally, medication abortion is slightly cheaper. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and drink more water. Rest more, avoid strenuous exercise, and make sure to have the abortion at a regular public hospital. After the abortion, pay attention to rest and take medication to reduce inflammation. It is strictly forbidden to have sexual intercourse for one month. After the abortion, have a follow-up color ultrasound to check the gradual recovery of the uterus. As long as it returns to normal, there is no need to worry.
