Patient's question:
Recently, I've noticed that my period hasn't come for more than a week. I took a pregnancy test, and it came back positive. I took the test three times, and it was positive each time. I haven't told my workplace yet, so I'm considering a medication abortion. Could you please tell me what potential side effects or disruptions medication abortion might have on my future health?Doctor's answer:
Now pregnant, it is recommended to have a 40-day menstrual period. Go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination. After the color Doppler ultrasound confirms an intrauterine pregnancy, you can decide on medication abortion or painless abortion. After one week of medication abortion, a follow-up color Doppler ultrasound is needed to check for any remnants. Apply cold compresses to the lower abdomen, pay attention to preventing colds, and avoid getting cold. Drink some brown sugar water. Enhance nutrition, eat more lean meat, eggs, and milk. Wish the patient a speedy recovery!
