Three months have passed, can taking abortion pills terminate the pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Three months have passed, can taking abortion pills terminate the pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Women within 49 days of pregnancy can choose medication abortion or surgical abortion. Around 70 days, surgical abortion is the only option, and for over 100 days, induction abortion is necessary. According to social surveys, the reasons for induction abortion generally include: natural fetal termination of pregnancy, fetal gender not matching parental expectations leading to forced abortion, or fetal abnormalities and diseases. The difference between induction abortion and miscarriage or abortion lies in the fact that the fetus has already passed the three-month danger period. At this stage, even surgical procedures like D&C cannot guarantee the safety of the pregnant woman, let alone medication abortion.
