What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? Can I have a medication abortion?

Patient's question:

When I was in the same room with my boyfriend without taking proper safety measures, I got pregnant. Hello, what should I do about an unexpected pregnancy? Can I have a medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, unintended pregnancy refers to non-voluntary early pregnancy caused by inadequate contraceptive measures. Abortion surgery is a remedy for unintended pregnancy. Early pregnancy can be terminated through a uterine aspiration procedure or a medication abortion procedure. Medication abortion is suitable for early pregnancy within 49 days. It is necessary to undergo a thorough ultrasound examination to confirm intrauterine pregnancy and rule out contraindications to oral medication. It is recommended to undergo the procedure at a regular hospital.
