Patient's question:
My boyfriend didn't take proper contraceptive measures, and it ended up with me getting pregnant. I want to hide it from my family and get a medication abortion. Does medication abortion harm the uterus?Doctor's answer:
Using medication abortion, although it does not cause damage to the uterus, medication abortion is not 100% effective. There is a possibility of incomplete miscarriage, and in such cases, a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure may be necessary. Generally, D&C surgery can cause surgical trauma to a woman's uterus, resulting in damage. It is recommended to consult with a doctor and choose an appropriate method for terminating early pregnancy based on the duration of pregnancy.
