Patient's question:
Is it better to lie down or sit down for medication abortion? How many hours do you need to rest for the remaining substances in your body to be completely expelled?Doctor's answer:
For medication-induced abortion, you can lie down or sit; this position is not too critical for the abortion process. If you experience severe abdominal pain, you can also lie down and gently massage your abdomen with your hands. After taking the medication, the uterus will contract again, and the fetus will be expelled. The entire process of embryo expulsion may take between one to two hours, but vaginal bleeding may last for about half a month.
