Patient's question:
Last week I found out I was pregnant. I want to have a medication abortion, but I've never done it before. How do I do a medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
Within 49 days of an unexpected pregnancy, terminating an early pregnancy is the best option. First, you should go to a regular hospital for a thorough ultrasound examination to confirm that the pregnancy is intrauterine before undergoing medication abortion. Medication abortion is also best not to be performed at home, as the success rate is not high and there is a risk of excessive bleeding or incomplete expulsion of the gestational sac. It is recommended that you have a follow-up ultrasound one week after medication abortion to check for any remnants. The above information can be used as a reference.
