Can I take medicine to abort my pregnancy at 45 days?

At 45 days of pregnancy, it is the early stage of pregnancy. At this time, the fertilized egg is not particularly stable in the uterus, so it is relatively convenient to terminate the pregnancy. The simplest method is to have a medical abortion, but the medical abortion must be done in the hospital, so that when unexpected situations occur, timely treatment can be carried out. So, can you take medicine to abort the pregnancy at 45 days of pregnancy?

The key to having a medical abortion is to do it early, so people with regular menstrual cycles can detect pregnancy immediately. Medical abortion is suitable for the early stages of pregnancy. Before undergoing medical abortion, an ultrasound examination must be performed. First, the possibility of ectopic pregnancy must be ruled out; secondly, the size of the gestational sac must be measured. A gestational sac larger than 2.3 cm is not suitable for medical abortion. In addition, the entire process of medical abortion is relatively long. You need to take medicine at home for 3 days first, and then take cervical dilation drugs in the hospital on the day of abortion. You will be observed in the hospital for several hours, and the doctor will confirm whether the fetal sac is expelled from the body. Another point we would like to remind everyone is that medical abortion has a 5% failure rate. If it is unsuccessful, artificial abortion will be needed to remedy the situation.

The bleeding time after medical abortion is relatively long. If the bleeding continues for more than 1 week, you must go to the hospital immediately and ask the doctor for help. Taking medication on your own to induce an abortion is very dangerous.

In addition to considering future fertility issues and choosing medical abortion, it is also safer for breastfeeding women with a softer uterus to choose medical abortion. Women who have had a cesarean section may have a scarred uterus, and women with uterine fibroids may have a change in the shape of their uterus. In these two situations, it is more difficult to perform artificial abortion, and medical abortion can also be considered.

Generally speaking, medical abortion causes less harm than surgical abortion. If a woman is pregnant within 49 days, it is best to have a medical abortion. If it is more than 49 days but within 70 days, it is best to have a surgical abortion to remove the fetus. As a pregnant woman, if you don’t want the baby, it is best to get it removed as soon as possible.

Difference between gestational sac and yolk sac

1. The gestational sac is a sac-like substance that wraps all normal tissues. The yolk sac is inside the gestational sac and will later develop into embryonic tissue. Gestational sac: The gestational sac is the primitive placental tissue, a small embryo wrapped by the amniotic membrane and vascular network. The gestational sac is the initial form of pregnancy. The fetus has not yet formed at that time, and the fetal heartbeat has already begun when the embryonic bud appears; yolk sac: After the embryo develops body folds, the archenteron is clearly divided into the archenteron inside the embryo and the yolk sac outside the embryo, which contains a large amount of yolk. The wall of the yolk sac is formed by the extraembryonic endoderm and the extraembryonic mesoderm.

2. During a normal human pregnancy, the diameter of the yolk sac is between 3 and 10 mm. The size of the yolk sac increases with the gestational age from 5 to 11 weeks, and shrinks until it disappears after 12 weeks of pregnancy. Generally, the yolk sac appears after 6 weeks of pregnancy and the heart tube beats after 8 weeks of pregnancy. Enlargement of the yolk sac is a sign of early pregnancy. There is no order between the yolk sac and the gestational sac, but there is a sequence that can be determined by B-ultrasound examination. The yolk sac provides hormonal support to the embryo, not food for the gestational sac. If you see a gestational sac in the uterus and a yolk sac inside the sac, it can be confirmed as an intrauterine pregnancy.
