What medicine is best to take for an abortion in the early stages of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

What medication should be taken during early pregnancy for a miscarriage? Which medication is the cleanest? Is a D&C necessary in the early stages?

Doctor's answer:

Early medication abortion can be considered when the gestational age is before 49 days, as it is not suitable for medication abortion if it is less than 49 days. There are generally two types of medications: Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. Western medicine involves the combined use of mifepristone and misoprostol, which must be taken under the guidance of a doctor to avoid excessive bleeding. Whether the medication abortion is clean depends on individual circumstances. Some women may have less adhesion and be more sensitive to the medication, resulting in a clean abortion. However, those with adhesion and less sensitivity to the medication may require a uterine clearance procedure. If the abortion is clean, a uterine clearance is not necessary.
