Can I have medical abortion only after the yolk sac grows out?

If the yolk sac is relatively small, medical abortion is not recommended at this time. You can have this abortion a few days later. It is best to have an ultrasound examination before the abortion. Also, it should be noted that abortion has a certain time limit. It can only be performed within seven weeks. If it exceeds 49 days, medical abortion cannot be performed. In addition, if the woman herself has some systemic chronic diseases, medical abortion is not suitable for her.

If the gestational sac is at 1.2 or is still very small, abortion cannot be performed. You can wait three to five days and then recheck the B-ultrasound. If it is around 2.0, you can have an abortion. After the abortion, you can pay more attention to rest and increase nutrition, which will also be beneficial to your body's recovery.

What is the best time for medical abortion?

The best time for medical abortion is generally within 7 weeks (49 days) of pregnancy (calculated from the start of menstruation). The most sensitive period for drug effect is 35-40 days. Medical abortion is a method of using drugs to cause degeneration and necrosis of the uterine decidua, soften the cervix, and simultaneously cause the uterus to contract, forcing the embryo out of the body. During this process, the patient will feel pain in the lower abdomen due to uterine contractions, and the pain will vary depending on individual tolerance. Therefore, to terminate a pregnancy within 49 days, the use of drugs will cause the activity of progesterone in the body to decrease, causing miscarriage, and then the drugs will be used to cause strong contractions of the uterus, forcing the pregnancy tissue to be discharged from the body. Currently, the commonly used drugs are mifepristone tablets (Ru 486) and prostaglandins. The former causes degeneration and necrosis of the uterine decidua and softening of the cervix, while the latter causes uterine contraction and promotes the expulsion of the embryo.

1. Healthy women under 40 years of age who voluntarily request to terminate their pregnancy, whose menstruation has stopped within 49 days and whose pregnancy is confirmed to be intrauterine.

2. No history of chronic disease or allergic asthma.

3. Those who are confirmed positive by B-ultrasound examination and urine pregnancy test.

4. Women who have not received glucocorticoid treatment in the past 3 months.

1. Failed abortion

After 8 days of medication, the fetal sac was not expelled, and B-ultrasound examination confirmed that there was still pregnancy in the uterus. In this case, you must go to the hospital for a uterine curettage.

2. Excessive blood loss, life-threatening

Especially when the bleeding is severe and does not stop, if the uterus is not cleaned and blood transfusion is not performed in time, the chance of rescue will be lost and the life may be in danger.

3. Side effects of medical abortion

In addition to gastrointestinal reactions such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, prolonged bleeding and heavy bleeding are the main side effects of medical abortion. Drug treatment is ineffective, and uterine curettage is required when necessary. Medical abortion must be performed in a medical institution with regular rescue conditions. Medical abortion has strong indications. If people who buy the medicine privately do not understand these indications, or if people who are not suitable for medical abortion buy the medicine to have an abortion on their own, it is very dangerous.
