Is there any dietary restriction for medication abortion?

Patient's question:

Hello, are there any dietary restrictions for medication abortion? Is medication abortion less harmful to the body? Why is it less harmful than surgical abortion? Why is it cheaper than surgical abortion? Why do I feel cold even though I wear more clothes?

Doctor's answer:

You should avoid spicy food and cold medication during a medication-induced abortion. There are both advantages and disadvantages to this method. The advantage is that it reduces the possibility of uterine cavity and reproductive organ inflammation. The disadvantage is that it may interfere with the endocrine system because its component is progesterone, and patients with progesterone resistance may not be able to complete the abortion, leading to prolonged bleeding and requiring a second D&C procedure. If you haven't had children yet and still want to have children in the future, it is not recommended to have a medication-induced abortion, as there have been reports that it may lead to infertility. When you wore it, you still felt a sense of fear, which might be because you just got pregnant.
