Does medication abortion have any impact on physical health?

Patient's question:

Hello, doctors. I only know that induced abortion does great harm to a person's body, and severe cases can even lead to infertility. Here, I would like to ask, what are the harms of medication abortion to a person's body?

Doctor's answer:

No matter what type of abortion method is used, the endometrium will be damaged accordingly. Drug abortion causes relatively minor damage, but there is a 20% chance that it may not be completely effective. If it is not completely effective, a uterine aspiration procedure will be required. Within 49 days of pregnancy, if it is confirmed to be a normal intrauterine pregnancy, drug abortion can be performed under the guidance of a doctor. If you do not plan to keep the pregnancy, it is important to promptly undergo a check-up at a regular hospital and follow the doctor's advice to choose an appropriate method for terminating the pregnancy.
