Patient's question:
Last month, I had sex with my boyfriend four times. This month, I found out I was unexpectedly pregnant. I've been vomiting non-stop, not eating, feeling very uncomfortable, and having no energy. After discussing it with my boyfriend, I decided to have an abortion. It's been about a month now.What kind of help do I need: What is the best time to have an abortion?
Doctor's answer:
If an abortion is performed when the pregnancy is less than 35 days, the fetus is still too small. Early abortion is risky because the embryo is just beginning to develop and is very small, making it easy to occur empty aspiration or missed aspiration, leading to surgical failure or incomplete abortion, which may require a second uterine clearance.
