Patient's question:
I recently accidentally got pregnant, but it's been two weeks since I realized it. I'm young, only 24, and I'm not really ready for a child. I hope I can avoid having this child. However, I don't have enough money to bear the medical expenses of an abortion alone. I want to ask if it's possible to have a medication abortion in the early stages of pregnancy.Doctor's answer:
Early pregnancy can be terminated with medication. Between weeks 5 and 7 of pregnancy, a miscarriage may occur. After a miscarriage, check the gestational sac to see if it has been completely expelled. If the miscarriage is not complete, a D&C (dilation and curettage) treatment may be necessary. During this period, avoid consuming excessive cold and spicy foods to prevent affecting the body's recovery. Eat more high-protein foods for better digestion and nutrition. Regulate physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
