I am 40 years old, had one induced abortion and one medication abortion, and now I am pregnant again.

Patient's question:

I am 40 years old. I had an induced abortion once two years ago and another medication abortion last year during the May Day holiday. It was very successful. This time, I accidentally got pregnant again. Can I still have a medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the abortion rate of medication-induced abortion is relatively low, and it is prone to complications such as incomplete abortion and excessive bleeding after the procedure. If the medication abortion is incomplete, a Dilation and Curettage (D&C) surgery is required, which can cause secondary harm to the body. We advise women to be cautious about medication-induced abortion. You can visit a hospital for a check-up and choose an appropriate abortion method based on factors such as the duration of pregnancy and the size of the gestational sac, following medical advice.
