Patient's question:
Once I was with my boyfriend and, for a moment of pleasure, didn't wear a condom. Unexpectedly, I got pregnant. We are both still students, and we don't want this child. Since it hasn't been very long since I got pregnant, I want to consider a medication abortion.Hello, doctor. Will a medication abortion early in pregnancy have any negative effects on my body?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to help you clarify your doubts. Your current age is still relatively young, and medication-induced abortion can be harmful to both your body and uterus. If it's just an occasional medication-induced abortion and you take good care of yourself afterward, it should have no significant impact. Medication-induced abortion can be performed within the first seven weeks of pregnancy. Before undergoing the procedure, it's necessary to have a detailed ultrasound examination to confirm intrauterine pregnancy and the condition of the gestational sac. Maintain physical and mental well-being, keep personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to a weakened immune system.
