Patient's question:
I am 31 years old this year, and my child is two years old. My last menstrual period was on November 1st, and it has been 37 days so far. This morning, I used a pregnancy test kit and it showed positive (two red lines). Should I go to the hospital immediately to have an abortion, or wait a few more days? Should I choose medication abortion, suction abortion, or painless abortion? I am quite scared. Please give me detailed advice from a doctor. Thank you very much!Doctor's answer:
Hello, miscarriage can be chosen between medication abortion or surgical abortion. Medication abortion must be within 49 days of pregnancy to be eligible. Medication abortion avoids the pain of surgical abortion, which is also the difference between medication abortion and surgical abortion. However, there are also some disadvantages. Medication abortion may not be completely effective, meaning it is possible that the embryo cannot be expelled in one go, leading to residual tissue. This would require a second procedure to clear the uterus.
