Patient's question:
I had an abortion a year ago and now I have unexpectedly become pregnant. I want to ask if it is possible to use medication for abortion.Doctor's answer:
Women within 49 days of pregnancy can choose medication abortion. Medication abortion avoids the pain of surgical abortion, but it also has some drawbacks. Medication abortion may not be completely effective, meaning the embryo might not be expelled in one go, leading to residual tissue and requiring a second procedure to clear the uterus. In fact, undergoing any form of abortion can have certain effects on a woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to post-procedure care and health maintenance. Patients undergoing abortion should take care of themselves, such as adjusting their diet, staying warm, and avoiding getting cold.
