Patient's question:
I and my girlfriend are both students. My girlfriend is pregnant. Is it better to have medication abortion or surgical abortion? It's less than two months of pregnancy. Which one is less harmful to the body? We don't have much time off if it's a surgery, right?Doctor's answer:
In such cases, it is better to opt for a surgical abortion to reduce the risk of complications, as a week of rest is usually sufficient. If you choose medication abortion, incomplete termination could lead to a second D&C procedure, causing greater harm. If you are not planning to have children, it is essential to use effective contraception to avoid the potential risks of multiple abortions, such as various gynecological diseases and infertility. Lastly, patients should develop healthy daily habits and maintain a regular sleep schedule.
