Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. Hello, can you have a medication abortion at 43 days of pregnancy? Generally, how long does it take for a miscarriage to be the most skilled? How long does medication abortion require taking medication? Is it necessary to have a uterine clearance after medication abortion? What complications would occur if it's not cleared?Doctor's answer:
You are currently 43 days pregnant. If an ultrasound examination has confirmed that it is an intrauterine pregnancy, this stage of pregnancy can be terminated using medication. Generally, medication abortion requires a menstrual delay of no more than 49 days. The medication for medication abortion is usually taken for 3 to 4 days. The success rate of medication abortion can be over 90%. As long as a follow-up ultrasound shows no residual tissue in the uterine cavity, a D&C procedure is not necessary. If there is residual tissue, a D&C procedure may be required if necessary. In this case, if the D&C procedure is not performed, it may lead to a shorter bleeding period and may also result in a recurrence of heavy bleeding.
