What should I do if I miss the best time for abortion?

Unexpected pregnancy is a very common phenomenon. After an unexpected pregnancy, an abortion is required. However, some people react slowly or take a long time to think, so they will miss the best time for an abortion. Although abortion can still be performed during the third month of pregnancy. But the surgery should be performed at the best time. The damage to the body is minimal, the operation is easier, and the body recovers faster. So when is the best time for abortion?

When is the best time for abortion?

Generally, painless abortion can be performed if the gestational sac is larger than 5 mm. However, due to individual differences, the specific time for individual abortion should be determined based on the size of the gestational sac.

If you have a painless abortion between 35 and 50 days of pregnancy, the operation will be relatively safe and simple, and the time it takes for the woman's body to recover after the operation will be shorter. Because the fetus has not yet formed at this time, the uterus is not too large, and the muscles of the uterine wall are thicker, the embryo can be easily sucked out. Therefore, the operation time is short, the amount of bleeding is small, and the body recovers faster after abortion.

If this time is exceeded, the surgical procedure will be more complicated and the recovery time after surgery will be longer. For pregnant women, the damage to their bodies is greater.

In addition, some people choose simple medical abortion. However, although medical abortion is convenient and simple, it has a certain time limit. When the gestational sac grows to a certain extent, simple medical abortion cannot be performed. Even if it grows rapidly, it may not be possible to have an abortion after the time is exceeded. The only way to make up for the negligence of unexpected pregnancy is to induce labor.

The best time for medical abortion is generally within 49 days of pregnancy. If it exceeds this time, it is better to adopt other abortion methods. Because medical abortion itself is worse than surgical abortion and has many limitations. At this time, the gestational sac is not very large, and the risk of medical abortion is relatively low.

However, even if you do it at the best time for medical abortion, there is no guarantee that it will be 100% successful. Generally, the success rate of medical abortion is only 75%. If a woman secretly performs a medical abortion at home without the guidance of a doctor, the 75% success rate will be greatly reduced.

After understanding the best time for abortion introduced in the article, when we find the phenomenon of unexpected pregnancy, we should have an abortion as soon as possible. Even if we miss the best time for abortion, the earlier the abortion is performed, the less harm to the body. However, it is recommended to take contraceptive measures when having sexual intercourse. This is the simplest way of contraception and causes the least harm to the body.
