Patient's question:
Your girlfriend had a thorough medical check-up at the hospital two days ago and found out she is pregnant. It's still less than a month. I want to ask if taking medication for an abortion within the first month of pregnancy will have an impact?Doctor's answer:
If you are currently undergoing blood tests or urine tests to confirm pregnancy, and it has only been less than a month, it is too early to consider medication abortion or surgical abortion. This is because the fertilized egg has not yet implanted in the uterus, meaning that a gestational sac has not formed. Therefore, it is not advisable to have an abortion at this time. If you are planning to have an abortion, it is best to wait for about ten days and then visit the hospital for a color ultrasound. The procedure for medication abortion can only be performed after the gestational sac is confirmed to be present within the uterine cavity.
