Patient's question:
Can you have a medication abortion after being pregnant for over a month? Will it cause an infection?Doctor's answer:
Gestational pregnancy within 49 days, the best time for medication abortion is 5-6 weeks. The failure rate of medication abortion increases with gestational age, and the amount of bleeding also increases. It is recommended that you first undergo a detailed ultrasound examination to confirm intrauterine pregnancy and ensure that the gestational sac size is within 7 weeks. After ruling out contraindications for medication abortion, you can consider this option. If the medication abortion is successful, proper post-abortion care is essential. Strictly avoid sexual activity and tub baths within one month, as this generally will not lead to infection.
