Which is recommended between medication abortion and induced abortion for first-time pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Morning urine test, please help me check if it's pregnant. If not ready to have a child, if it is, which one is recommended between medication abortion and surgical abortion for the first pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the information you provided, it seems that you might be pregnant. You should undergo an MRI examination to confirm an intrauterine early pregnancy. Since this is your first pregnancy, the count starts from the first day of your last menstrual period. If it is within 49 days, it is recommended that you undergo medication abortion under medical supervision. Even if there is residual tissue, a second procedure to clear the uterus can prevent mechanical trauma to the cervix caused by dilatation. If you decide to have an induced abortion procedure, whether it is a conventional induced abortion or an anesthesia-induced abortion, the physical and psychological trauma are the same; the only difference is whether you are anesthetized or not.
