Can you do medication abortion if you get pregnant again?

Patient's question:

I had an abortion in October because of work reasons, and I still don't want to get pregnant now. But unexpectedly, I got pregnant again. On December 20, my husband and I had sex without using any protection, and I think that's the reason. My period arrived last month on November 22. I want to ask if it's still time to do a medication abortion now, and do I still need to go to the hospital for an ultrasound? I really don't want to go to the hospital again.
Follow-up question: Based on my current situation, is it suitable for me to do a medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally, medication abortion can be performed within 7 weeks of pregnancy. It is inevitable that miscarriage will cause harm to the body, and whether it affects future fertility depends on the body's recovery.
Recommendation: Before choosing an abortion method, it is recommended to have an ultrasound examination at the hospital to rule out ectopic pregnancy before selecting the abortion method. Wishing you good health.
In fact, under normal circumstances, undergoing any type of abortion will cause some damage to the female body. Therefore, patients should pay attention to their diet. Patients undergoing abortion should take care of themselves, such as paying attention to warmth and avoiding contact with cold water.
