Can a person with inflammation have an abortion?

Patient's question:

I am more than one month pregnant, but the check-up said I have inflammation and cannot have an abortion. It said the inflammation is caused by athlete's foot. The doctor said it's not serious, but I can't wait. I want to have an abortion. Please let me know if it's possible.

Doctor's answer:

Generally, hospitals will not directly perform an abortion if there is inflammation, because doing so may easily lead to infection and cause serious consequences. Therefore, hospitals will first treat the inflammation to ensure safety before performing the abortion. This is also a way to be responsible for you. For an abortion, you can consider the superconducting visual painless abortion at 461 Hospital, which is said to be quite advanced.
Additionally, it is strongly recommended not to have medication abortion. First, medication abortion also requires the inflammation to be treated beforehand, otherwise it is equally dangerous. Second, medication abortion causes more harm to the body compared to surgical abortion, and it is not 100% effective. If it fails, a D&C (dilation and curettage) will be necessary, which means double the harm.
