Patient's question:
17-year-old girl gets pregnant after taking medication for abortion, then gets pregnant again three months later and doesn't want it!Doctor's answer:
You can take medication to induce a miscarriage if your intrauterine pregnancy sac size is between 1.0-2.0 centimeters within 49 days of your missed period. An artificial abortion can be performed if the pregnancy sac size is between 2.0-3.0 centimeters within 69 days of your missed period. Miscarriage causes more harm to a woman's body compared to a post-abortion procedure. It is essential to pay attention and take two weeks off from heavy physical labor. Strictly avoid sexual activity for one month after the procedure. At least one year should be avoided from getting pregnant again after a post-abortion procedure.
