How is a medication abortion considered successful?

Patient's question:

How is the entire process of medication abortion? How is medication abortion considered successful? How can one self-assess whether it is completely cleaned out?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, after taking oral medication, the embryo can smoothly complete its discharge. Additionally, vaginal bleeding will persist for about 7 to 10 days and then completely stop. If the vaginal bleeding lasts for more than half a month and the bleeding is excessive, it should be considered that the medication abortion was not completely thorough. In this case, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for an abdominal ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis. In severe cases, it may be necessary to go to a regular hospital's gynecology department to undergo a uterine aspiration procedure.
