Patient's question:
I am currently pregnant for over a month, but I don't want a child for now. Which is safer, medication abortion or surgical abortion?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the commonly used medications for medical abortion are mifepristone and misoprostol. They are primarily suitable for women who cannot focus on early pregnancy due to certain reasons within 49 days of gestation. Compared to other methods of miscarriage, medical abortion poses less harm to the female reproductive system because it does not require entering the uterine cavity for operation. After the procedure, it is important to rest more and avoid sexual activity and tub baths for at least two weeks.
