Which is better, medication abortion or painless abortion?

Patient's question:

What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? Which is less harmful, medication abortion or painless abortion?

Doctor's answer:

It is best to consider undergoing a conventional surgical procedure for an abortion. Medical abortions can easily result in incomplete miscarriage and lead to severe bleeding. Painless abortions can cause uterine perforation. It is preferable to undergo a hysteroscopic-guided curettage, as there are no residual tissues post-surgery, which prevents severe bleeding and makes it the safest method for abortion.
In fact, under normal circumstances, any method of abortion will have some impact on a woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. Post-abortion patients should focus on self-care, such as maintaining a balanced diet and avoiding cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
