Patient's question:
I haven't had my period for a while, and it has been delayed by 43 days. An ultrasound can already see a gestational sac. I don't want to have a child so soon, so I'm planning to have an abortion. Can I have a medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
Yes, it is possible to have medication-induced abortion, but it must be taken under the guidance of a doctor in a regular hospital. The risk of medication-induced abortion is relatively high, and incomplete abortion may occur, requiring a follow-up D&C procedure. It is recommended to consider a painless abortion, as it is less painful and the recovery is quicker. After the abortion, it is important to monitor vaginal bleeding and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area to avoid infection.
