Patient's question:
Can a woman have an abortion at 38 days pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is best to have an ultrasound to confirm that it is intrauterine before proceeding. The best time for an abortion is between 35 and 50 days of pregnancy, as this is the optimal period. The number of pregnancy days is calculated from the first day of your last menstrual period. Anesthesia-free abortion can be performed within the first three months of pregnancy. It is easiest to have an anesthesia-free abortion within the first 70 days of pregnancy because the gestational sac is small, relatively speaking, the surgical difficulty is lower, the damage to the uterus is minimal, and recovery is faster. It is recommended to go to a formal gynecological hospital for a detailed examination to confirm that the gestational sac is intrauterine before proceeding with the abortion. One month after the abortion, cohabitation and tub baths are prohibited.
