Is it better to have an abortion or medication abortion within the first month of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Is it better to have an abortion or medication abortion within the first month of pregnancy? Is medication abortion clean? Which is more painful, abortion or medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Medication abortion is generally best performed within 45 days of pregnancy, and it is recommended to choose after 35 days of pregnancy. This is because during this period after conception, the gestational sac is still relatively small, and the connection between the gestational sac and the placenta is not very tight, making the medication abortion process easier.
