Can you ask if it is possible to have medication abortion at 40 days of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I'm busy with work and it's unstable, so I don't want children for now. But I got pregnant unexpectedly. Can I have a medication abortion at 40 days of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Early pregnancy within 49 days can be determined as a completed medication abortion. The smaller the gestational age, the higher the success rate. It is recommended to first visit the gynecology outpatient department of the hospital for a gynecological ultrasound examination to determine the specific gestational age, as well as blood tests, leukorrhea tests, and other relevant examinations. If these tests show no abnormalities, medication abortion can be decided. After medication abortion, pay attention to vulvar hygiene and rest. If there is still bleeding after a week, it is recommended to return to the hospital for a follow-up ultrasound to rule out any residual tissue.
