Can I have abortion with medicine if I am more than two months pregnant?

If women want to terminate the pregnancy after an unexpected pregnancy, they usually choose medical abortion or surgical abortion. Medical abortion is to terminate the pregnancy by taking medicine. Although no surgery is required, if the medical abortion is incomplete, surgical curettage is required, which is a second injury for women. Medical abortion is not suitable for every woman. So, is it possible to have a medical abortion when you are 2 months pregnant?

Can I have a medical abortion at 2 months of pregnancy?

Medical abortion is simple, effective, non-invasive, and avoids complications that may result from actual intrauterine operations. Medical abortion must first be confirmed to be an intrauterine pregnancy. If it is an ectopic pregnancy, medical abortion may cause internal bleeding. When is the best time for medical abortion? Medical abortion is generally more suitable within 7 weeks (49 days) of pregnancy (calculated from the beginning of menstruation). Medical abortion can only be used to stop a pregnancy of 5 to 7 weeks. If the pregnancy exceeds this number of weeks, it is not suitable to terminate the pregnancy by medical abortion.

Medical abortion usually requires taking two kinds of medicine. First, take the medicine to inhibit the development of the embryo. After 2-3 days, take the medicine to contract the uterus to expel the test tube embryo. Most people will experience abdominal pain caused by uterine contraction two hours after taking this kind of medicine. Generally, you can go to the hospital for observation for six hours after taking the medicine and go home. The bleeding will continue for 1-2 weeks afterwards. You can go to the hospital for a follow-up B-ultrasound check later to see if it has been completely eliminated. Experts remind that even if you choose medical abortion, you still need to go to the hospital to do it, and don't buy medicine on your own. The following women are suitable for medical abortion:

For those who have had a cesarean section within one year, an abortion within six months, or have had multiple abortions and are pregnant again, because the uterus has not fully recovered, surgical abortion is very likely to cause risks such as injury and bleeding.

2. For women who take steroid emergency contraceptives for a long time or are breastfeeding, because the uterine wall is thin, soft and sensitive, it is very easy to be damaged, so it is best to have an abortion without surgery.

3. For women with uterine deformity or extremely tilted uterus, surgical treatment is somewhat difficult.

4. Women who are extremely worried about surgery or have experienced dizziness, panic, sweating, pale face, etc. during surgery.

Common questions before medical abortion:

1. Perform B-ultrasound examination before medical abortion to rule out ectopic pregnancy and understand the size and location of the gestational sac to help determine whether medical abortion is appropriate.

2. Medical abortion must be for pregnant women within 50 days of amenorrhea and under the age of 34.

3. Good health status, no contraindications. To put it simply, contraindications include: past or current serious systemic diseases, liver and kidney dysfunction, allergic constitution, heart disease, hypertension, anemia, asthma, glaucoma, skin itching during pregnancy, etc.

4. Medical abortion should be carried out in a hospital with outpatient treatment, curettage and intravenous drip facilities, and more frequent observation should be carried out to prevent accidents.

5. Strictly following the doctor's instructions and regular follow-up examinations before medical abortion are important issues that cannot be ignored; today when medical abortion has become a trend, the issues before medical abortion are also very complex and necessary. Therefore, before using medical abortion, you must fully understand the common problems before medical abortion.

Common problems after medical abortion:

1. After the tissue is discharged, you need to go to the hospital for observation for 1 hour. If the vaginal bleeding is minimal, you can go home and rest.

2. Rest moderately within 2 weeks after abortion, eat nutritious food, and avoid doing heavy physical work.

3. Pay attention to the cleaning of the perineum. Do not take a sitz bath or have sex when vaginal bleeding has not stopped.

4. In the first 2 to 3 days after abortion, the amount of vaginal bleeding is generally equal to or slightly more than the menstrual volume. If the amount of vaginal bleeding is heavy or persistent, seek medical attention immediately.

5. Patients who do not see any tissue discharge should be observed for 2 weeks after taking the medicine, and pay attention to whether any tissue discharge occurs during defecation or urination. Do a weekly urine test for pregnancy.

6. The ovulation period may resume quickly after an abortion, so contraceptive methods should be used to prevent pregnancy again.
