Can an abortion be performed after being pregnant for more than four months?

Patient's question:

What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? The harm is relatively small. Can I have an abortion if I am more than four months pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

It is best to consider a conventional surgical procedure for miscarriage. Medical abortion is prone to incomplete miscarriage, which can lead to severe bleeding. Painless abortion can easily cause uterine perforation. It is best to undergo a hysteroscopic-guided dilatation and curettage. There are no residual tissues post-surgery, so it does not cause severe bleeding, making it the safest method for miscarriage.
In fact, under normal circumstances, undergoing any form of induced abortion will have some impact on the pregnant woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to their diet. Patients undergoing induced abortion should take care of themselves, such as adjusting their diet, keeping warm, and avoiding catching a cold.
