Which is more harmful to the body, medication abortion or painless abortion?

Patient's question:

I am more than 40 days pregnant because I am not married yet. I received training in a KTV. I don't know who the father is. Now I want to have an abortion and want to understand which method—medication abortion or painless abortion—is more harmful to the body. Thank you for your reply.

Doctor's answer:

When comparing medication abortion to surgical abortion, medication abortion is definitely less harmful to the body. This is because medication abortion works by using drugs to promote the inflammation of the gestational sac tissue and enhance the natural shedding of the endometrium. Therefore, if you are currently pregnant and the gestational age is 49 days or less, medication abortion can still be used to terminate an early pregnancy, which is less harmful to the body.
