Patient's question:
I am more than two months pregnant and do not want this child. I want to terminate the pregnancy by taking medication. Is it safe to have a medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
Pregnant for more than two months, if you do not want this baby, you can have a medication abortion to terminate it. Medication abortion refers to the process where the embryo naturally expels itself from the body after taking mifepristone and misoprostol orally. However, during this process, there is always a possibility of experiencing heavy vaginal bleeding at any time. If heavy vaginal bleeding occurs again or the medication abortion is incomplete, a Dilation and Curettage (D&C) procedure may be necessary at any time.
