Patient's question:
I had a cesarean section and got pregnant again at seven months. Can I have an abortion? The doctor at the hospital said I can only have medication abortion. I wanted to have an abortion without pain, but the doctor said it's not possible. I want to know if I can really have an abortion?Doctor's answer:
A Cesarean section patient should breastfeed for at least two years before attempting to conceive again. In your case, it is not advisable to focus on early pregnancy. It is recommended to undergo a thorough ultrasound examination. If it can be confirmed that it is an intrauterine pregnancy, it is likely that the gestational age is not less than 49 days, and medication-induced abortion could be considered, as it causes less damage to the uterus compared to surgical abortion. If you insist on undergoing an abortion under anesthesia, that is also acceptable. For severe cases of Cesarean section, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid changing medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect on the treatment outcome.
