How long after pregnancy can you have medication abortion?

Patient's question:

My sister is pregnant for a month, but she doesn't want this child. She wants to have a medication abortion. Hello doctor, how long after getting pregnant can one have a medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, medical abortion can be performed within 50 days of pregnancy. If the time is too long, it is best not to undergo medical abortion because it is difficult to completely expel the pregnancy, which may lead to retained products of conception or miscarriage, posing risks. It is important to drink plenty of water, get adequate rest, ensure deep sleep, avoid overtime work, and prevent overexertion. Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, and avoid spicy or foods. Quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption. Maintain regular exercise and keep a positive mood.
