Patient's question:
My girlfriend is pregnant and is preparing to have a medication abortion. Hello doctor, does medication abortion require intravenous infusion? Thank you for your explanation.Doctor's answer:
If your girlfriend becomes pregnant and decides not to have the child, and meets the criteria for medication abortion, she can choose medication abortion to terminate early pregnancy. Medication abortion is not a surgical procedure and causes relatively minor damage to the uterus. Additionally, the process is similar to a regular menstrual period. After medication abortion, the main difference is that the bleeding period tends to be longer. There is a possibility of secondary inflammation due to prolonged bleeding, so oral antibiotics can be taken during this stage to prevent infection. Generally, intravenous fluids are not required.
