Can medication abortion be used to confirm intrauterine pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can medication abortion be used to confirm intrauterine pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, medication-induced abortion must be performed within 39 to 49 days from the first day of the last menstrual period. Before undergoing medication-induced abortion, it is essential to have an ultrasound examination to first rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancy is a common reproductive organ tumor, mostly benign, with slow growth rate, and generally no clinical symptoms. Medication treatment is not very effective; you can try taking Guizhi Fuling capsules. If there are no abnormalities, regular follow-up can be considered. If a cyst accumulation is found to be larger than 5 cm, surgery may be considered.
