Is there any danger in taking medicine to induce abortion? Is it safe?

Not all women with unexpected pregnancies can have medical abortions. Medical abortions require that the gestational age is less than 49 days and the size of the gestational sac is less than 2.3 cm. Otherwise, it is easy to cause incomplete abortion or failed abortion. Medical abortion is safe, but there is a certain failure rate. After a failed medical abortion, a uterine curettage is required. Improper uterine curettage can cause damage to the woman's uterus, so everyone should be cautious when deciding whether to have an abortion.

If protective measures are not taken, it is easy for an unexpected pregnancy to happen. If you are pregnant before you are ready to have a child, you can usually deal with it through two safe methods: medical abortion and artificial abortion. However, many women who encounter this situation for the first time will be very worried about whether taking medicine will be dangerous. So, is it safe to take medicine for abortion?
If you choose to terminate the pregnancy by medical abortion, the pregnancy cannot be too long. Generally, the best time for medical abortion is within 49 days of pregnancy. Ultrasound examination shows that the average diameter of the gestational sac is less than 2.3 cm. If it exceeds 49 days, it is not suitable for medical abortion. The complete abortion rate of medical abortion is more than 90%, and incomplete abortion or failed abortion may occur in 10%.
First, the abortion drugs themselves may cause allergies or damage liver and kidney function. Therefore, patients need to undergo a physical examination before medical abortion. On the day of medical abortion, patients need to observe whether the hospital has any allergic symptoms. Secondly, medical abortion may cause women to have incomplete abortions, and in severe cases, there may be risks such as heavy bleeding. The most obvious symptom of heavy bleeding after medical abortion is more than one bleeding, which is continuous bleeding. It may be due to damage to the uterus or the fetal sac has not been discharged in time, but the specific situation must be judged by a professional doctor. If a woman has the above symptoms after medical abortion, she should seek medical attention in time.
Women can choose a safer painless abortion, which uses minimally invasive surgery in the uterine cavity to suck out the gestational sac, decidua, blood and other tissues from the uterus with negative pressure suction. Its advantages are strong operability, clean embryo suction, and short postoperative bleeding time, but it causes greater damage to the endometrium. Women need to choose the appropriate abortion method according to their own situation.
Medical abortion is a traditional method with great safety risks. It is easy to have an incomplete abortion, which requires uterine cleaning and causes secondary damage to the uterus. If the uterus-preserving abortion is not performed in a standardized manner, it will also cause damage to the cervix, uterine adhesions, and endometrium. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a regular hospital for the abortion. If women really want to have an abortion, they cannot choose a small clinic with irregular operations. Women should do relevant examinations before abortion, and pay attention to physical maintenance within one month after the abortion and get enough rest.
