For expectant fathers and mothers who are already prepared, discovering pregnancy is undoubtedly a very happy thing. However, for those who are not yet ready to have children, if they discover pregnancy at this time, it may not be a happy or even troublesome thing, and most of them will choose to have their baby aborted. So, can abortion be done in the early stages of pregnancy?
Generally speaking, medication can be used for abortion in the early stages of pregnancy, which is within 49 days. However, before using medical abortion, an ultrasound examination is required, mainly to check the size of the gestational sac. Generally, if the gestational sac is within 2.5 centimeters, medical abortion can be chosen. However, it should be noted that women with scarred uterus or uterine dysplasia, severe pelvic malformation, recent uterine surgery or injury, or complications such as uterine fibroids and ovarian tumors are not recommended to undergo medical abortion.
If an induced abortion is required, one can go to the hospital for a color ultrasound examination within 60 days of pregnancy after 40 days. During this period, if the gestational sac enters the uterine cavity, the abortion surgery can be performed. Both medical abortion and induced abortion have their own advantages and disadvantages, so it is recommended that patients choose under the professional advice of a doctor. It is also important to note that after about a week of abortion, it is necessary to promptly go to the hospital for a follow-up examination to see if the abortion has been completely completed.
In addition, when women first discover pregnancy and choose any method of abortion, they need to undergo B-ultrasound examination to determine if it is an intrauterine pregnancy before considering which method to choose to terminate the pregnancy. In addition, it is not possible to have a miscarriage when the gestational sac has not yet developed in the uterine cavity during pregnancy.
