Patient's question:
Before taking medication abortion, if vaginitis is detected, does treating vaginitis mean missing the medication abortion window and requiring a surgical abortion instead?Doctor's answer:
Hello, vaginitis will not affect medication abortion. Before undergoing medication abortion, it is essential to have an ultrasound examination to first rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. Additionally, the size of the gestational sac should be measured; if it exceeds 2.3 cm, medication abortion is not suitable. The commonly used medications are mifepristone and prostaglandin, and it is recommended to undergo the procedure under the guidance of a clinical physician.
