Can you do medication abortion at 20 days pregnant?

Patient's question:

I am 20 days pregnant and don't want this child. Could you please help me clarify this with the doctor? Can I have a medication abortion at 20 days of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

It is not appropriate to have medication abortion at 20 days of pregnancy. It is recommended that you wait until around 49 days of pregnancy and then go to a regular hospital's gynecology and obstetrics department for a thorough examination. At that time, the size of the gestational sac is more suitable for medication abortion. However, if there is residual tissue after medication abortion, it may be necessary to undergo a second surgical procedure. You can also choose a painless induced abortion. After a miscarriage, it is important to rest, avoid overexertion, and take care to prevent catching a cold. Pay attention to nutrition.
