Patient's question:
Pregnancy was accidental, and it has been over 30 days. Today is the first day of medication abortion, and the abdominal pain is unbearable. How long does it take for the gestational sac to be expelled during medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you with your question. On the first day of medication-induced abortion, mifepristone is usually taken orally. A small portion of pregnant women may experience abdominal pain again, but the gestational sac typically does not come out on the first day. It is necessary to take oral mifepristone on the third day and then take misoprostol orally on the third day. Under normal circumstances, severe abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding usually occur about six hours after taking misoprostol. Subsequently, the gestational sac will be expelled. Therefore, when taking misoprostol, it should be done under medical supervision, and the doctor will determine whether the expelled object is the gestational sac.
