How many tablets of mifepristone are needed for an abortion?

Patient's question:

What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? The harm is relatively small. How many tablets of mifepristone do I need to take for an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Mifepristone is primarily used for abortion and needs to be used in combination with misoprostol. When the abortion is performed at a later stage, the effect of taking mifepristone alone is poor. At this time, it is mainly used to soften the cervix, and a D&C procedure is still required. During an abortion, hospitalization is necessary. Do not take medication for abortion by yourself, otherwise it is easy to experience severe bleeding, shock, etc. If you do not want to keep the fetus, it is recommended to go to a local regular hospital for an abortion.
