Patient's question:
I am 40 days pregnant and have decided to have a medication abortion. Hello, how long does a medication abortion take when you are 40 days pregnant?Doctor's answer:
You are currently 40 days pregnant, and this stage falls within the range of medical abortion. You can choose to have a medical abortion. First, you need to go to the hospital for a B examination to confirm that the pregnancy is intrauterine. After that, you can proceed with medical abortion. Generally, at least 3 days or 4 days of oral medication is required for medical abortion. Usually, abdominal pain and bleeding will occur again when taking the last three pills, and at this stage, the gestational sac will be expelled. Additionally, the bleeding period after medical abortion is relatively long, lasting about 8 days to 2 weeks. You can go to the local hospital for a follow-up B examination 2 to 3 days after the bleeding interval to rule out the possibility of residual tissue in the uterine cavity.
