Three-day process of medical abortion

Three-day process of medical abortion

Medical abortion is a relatively common method of abortion. If you are still in the early stages of pregnancy and your physical condition is suitable, you can choose medical abortion. Of course, medical abortion requires a certain process. Only when the relevant work is done well in each process can the pregnancy be finally terminated. So, what is the process of medical abortion? This will be introduced in detail below!

1. Medical abortion process

1. Strict screening before medication, including asking about medical history, conducting a full physical examination and gynecological examination, laboratory tests such as urine pregnancy test, vaginal cleanliness, Trichomonas and fungi, blood routine and blood type, and B-ultrasound examination when necessary.

2. The doctor will explain in detail how to take the medication, the efficacy of the medication and possible side effects, and the medication can only be used after obtaining consent.

3. Take mifepristone orally for the first two days and misoprostol orally on the last day. Fast for two hours before and after taking the medicine. Stay in bed after taking prostaglandin on the last day because miscarriage will occur within two hours. The current commonly used dosage is 150-200 mg of mifepristone, which can be taken all at once or divided into several doses within 3 days.

4. Go to the hospital on the third day to add prostaglandin preparations: 1 mg of Carprostol suppository placed in the vagina or 600 micrograms of misoprostol taken orally. Observe in hospital for 6 hours.

2. Best time for medical abortion

Medical abortion can only be performed if it is an intrauterine pregnancy. If it is an ectopic pregnancy, medical abortion may cause heavy bleeding. When is the best time for medical abortion? The time for medical abortion is generally within 7 weeks (49 days) of pregnancy (calculated from the start of menstruation). The drug is most sensitive between the 35th and 40th days, while abortion can usually be performed within 12 weeks of knowing the pregnancy.

3. Precautions after medical abortion

1. After taking the medicine for medical abortion, if there is vaginal bleeding, continue to take the medicine and do not stop taking it. Use a spittoon for urination and defecation, and pay attention to whether there is any tissue discharged. If you have any, you need to see a doctor for examination. If vaginal bleeding is more than twice the amount of menstrual flow, you should seek medical attention immediately and be closely observed, and the obstetrician and gynecologist will handle it as appropriate.

2. Some pregnant women experience mild nausea, vomiting, dizziness, fatigue, lower abdominal pain and other discomforts after taking medication for medical abortion. Some may also develop a rash, but generally no treatment is required.

3. At 8 a.m. on the fourth day, come to the hospital on an empty stomach or 2 hours after eating and take 0.6 g (3 tablets) of rice essence orally with warm water (not exceeding 30°C), rest in bed for 2 hours, and be observed in the outpatient clinic for 6 hours. Pay attention to whether there is any discharge of pregnancy products, bleeding and its side effects after taking the medicine.
