Patient's question:
I have been pregnant for two months and want to have a medication abortion. Do you have any suggestions for medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
Early pregnancy termination is most effective within 49 days of conception. The success rate decreases as the gestational age increases. The primary condition for medication abortion is that the gestational age cannot be too large. Since you are already 2 months pregnant, which is 8 weeks, if the ultrasound confirms the gestational age is also 8 weeks, medication abortion is not recommended due to the risk of incomplete abortion. If the ultrasound confirms the gestational age is within 7 weeks, it is acceptable. Additionally, medication abortion requires that there are no underlying health conditions, and liver and kidney function must be normal before taking the medication.
