Is it harmful to have an abortion at 40 days of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I am 40 days pregnant, but due to many reasons, I cannot have this child, and I want to have an abortion. Is it harmful to have an abortion at 4 days of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Early-term induced abortion procedures can potentially cause certain harm to the body. However, the fewer the number of days of pregnancy, the relatively smaller the harm to the uterus and body. Early-term induced abortion can be performed at 40 days of pregnancy. It can be resolved through medication abortion or Dilation and Curettage (D&C). Before the procedure, an ultrasound examination is required to confirm intrauterine early pregnancy. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
