Which is better, medication abortion or surgical abortion for the first pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I was really surprised by the pregnancy, and I don't want this child, especially since it's my first one. Is it better to have a medication abortion or a surgical abortion for the first pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Medical abortion and surgical abortion each have their own advantages and disadvantages. Medical abortion is simple and has fewer side effects on the body, but it is prone to incomplete abortion, which may require further uterine evacuation surgery. Surgical abortion, on the other hand, is generally more complete in terms of abortion. The specific situation should still be decided based on your physical condition. After an abortion, it is essential to properly rest and recover your body.
