Patient's question:
I have been pregnant for more than four months, but now I don't want to continue. Which type of abortion is more suitable for me?I would like to ask if all midterm abortions require hospitalization. If I choose medication abortion, how long does it take?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, you are four months pregnant and undergoing an abortion. There are many options for abortion procedures. Generally, chemotherapy is not required. You received an injection yesterday. If it was an intramembranous injection, you may experience some reaction today. If the fetal placenta is expelled completely, a uterine aspiration may not be necessary. Observe for several hours. If there is excessive bleeding, medication can be administered to allow you to go home. It is recommended that some procedures take about 36 hours. Therefore, not feeling anything or experiencing bleeding at this point is normal. Postoperatively, a uterine aspiration can clear any remaining placenta, followed by anti-inflammatory treatment, which can be taken orally or administered intravenously.
