Patient's question:
I got married to my husband not long ago, and I don't want to have children yet. But during intimacy, the protection measures weren't used properly, and I got pregnant. I want to ask the doctor, can I take abortion pills a week after having sex? Are abortion pills safe? Will they affect my ability to have children in the future?Doctor's answer:
You can take abortion pills if you are pregnant, but you must take them within 42 days of pregnancy and under the guidance of a doctor at the hospital. It is not recommended to take abortion pills casually, as they can easily lead to residual tissue in the uterus, requiring a second D&C procedure. After taking the medication, you must pay close attention and carefully observe any changes. It is also important to take precautions against colds, enhance your nutrition, and drink some motherwort tea to promote the discharge of lochia.
