Can an abortion still be performed at 6 months of pregnancy? If so, how much would it cost approximately?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if a fetus over 3 months pregnant is unwanted, an abortion is necessary. An abortion is equivalent to giving birth and has a significant impact on the body. It is recommended to have it done at a regular hospital. One week before the abortion surgery, avoid sexual activity. The day before the surgery, take a bath, change clothes, and avoid catching a cold or getting a flu. During the surgery, cooperate closely with the doctor and do not be overly nervous.
After the surgery, avoid sexual activity, soaking in a bath, vaginal irrigation, and medication for one month. This is because the cervix is relaxed, the endometrium is shedding, and the local defense ability is weakened, making it easy to cause retrograde infection, leading to conditions such as endometritis, adnexitis, and other pelvic inflammatory diseases. Severe cases may result in infertility.
Hope this helps you.
