Patient's question:
Doctor, I recently got pregnant unexpectedly, and I don't want to have the baby. I have been pregnant for about two weeks now. I want to ask you, can I terminate the pregnancy by taking medication? What are the problems that may occur after medication abortion? Will it affect my future pregnancies?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, the main problems after medication abortion are incomplete miscarriage and uterine infection. Therefore, it is important to rest after the abortion, avoid overexertion, pay attention to preventing colds, and ensure a nutritious diet with a scientific and reasonable combination to help the body recover. Within one month after medication abortion, sexual intercourse and tub baths are not allowed. After the bleeding stops, it is necessary to promptly undergo a follow-up ultrasound examination. Any method of miscarriage carries risks, but medication abortion causes less harm to the body. Proper post-abortion care generally does not affect normal pregnancy.
