How long into pregnancy can an abortion be performed?

Patient's question:

What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? The harm is relatively small. How long after pregnancy can an abortion be performed?

Doctor's answer:

It is best to consider a conventional surgical procedure for miscarriage. Medical abortion is prone to incomplete miscarriage, which can lead to severe bleeding. Painless abortion can easily cause uterine perforation. It is recommended to undergo a hysteroscopic-guided dilatation and curettage, as there are no residual tissues post-surgery, thus preventing severe bleeding and making it the safest method for miscarriage.
It is advised to promptly undergo an endoscopy or barium meal examination at the hospital to rule out any organic diseases in the stomach. Consume light and easily digestible foods, avoid spicy and irritating foods, pay attention to keeping warm, and avoid catching a cold. You may appropriately take digestive aids for symptomatic treatment, such as Jianwei Xiaoshi Pian (Stomach Comfort Tablets) or Domperidone, etc.
