Patient's question:
My best friend got pregnant accidentally and has just undergone a medication abortion. The doctor has asked her to be hospitalized for close observation. How many days are typically required for a medication abortion to be done with hospitalization?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your best friend got pregnant accidentally and had a medication abortion. The doctor said she needs to be hospitalized for observation. If it's a medication abortion in the early stages, there's no need for hospitalization. She just needs to be carefully observed at the hospital after the gestational sac is expelled and check the condition of the bleeding. If the gestational sac is completely expelled and the bleeding is not significant, she can go home. So, there's no need for hospitalization. After the medication abortion, she needs to rest at home for a week. Sexual activity is strictly prohibited within one month, and spicy, irritating, and extremely cold foods should not be consumed.
