Can I use medicine to abort my pregnancy after 28 days?

Generally speaking, the best time for a woman to have a medical abortion is within 49 days of pregnancy. However, if it is more than 49 days, it is best to terminate the pregnancy through surgical abortion. Twenty-eight days of pregnancy is generally within the best range for medical abortion, and medical abortion can be used to terminate the pregnancy. However, medical abortion can easily result in incomplete abortion, which requires uterine curettage. Abortion is very harmful to the female body.

Comparing the two abortion methods, medical abortion does not require surgery, while surgical abortion does require surgery. However, one thing needs to be noted. Medical abortion has very strict requirements on the time of pregnancy. The shorter the time, the more effective it will be. It is usually performed within 49 days of amenorrhea. If medical abortion is started beyond this time, the chance of failure will be very high. At this time, uterine curettage surgery will have to be performed, which will further harm the body.

If the pregnancy is within 35-55 days, abortion is recommended. At this time, the uterus is not too large, and the operation generally does not require cervical dilation, so the impact on the body is relatively small.

Therefore, compared with surgical abortion, medical abortion causes relatively less damage, but has a relatively lower success rate. You can make a choice based on the length of pregnancy, or after further examination at the hospital, consult a doctor for advice.

1. Time difference

The time for medical abortion is strictly controlled medically to be within 49 days of amenorrhea. Abortion can be performed within 14 weeks of pregnancy. If it is beyond 14 weeks, abortion will be induced. By the way, the best time is between 35-50 days after menopause, because the uterus is not too large, there is not too much pregnancy tissue, and the fetus is small, so it is easy to suck out, the operation time is short, and there is less bleeding.

Infection from medical abortion is usually caused by not paying attention to vulvar hygiene, or by resuming sexual intercourse before fully recovering from the abortion. This can induce genital inflammation and cause vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, and foul-smelling vaginal discharge. The infection caused by artificial abortion is manifested in damage to the endometrium and myometrium, making habitual abortion and premature birth more likely to occur during the next pregnancy.

3. Different recovery times

Medical abortion takes a long time, and vaginal bleeding will occur for a long time after taking the medicine. The recovery time from an artificial abortion is relatively short, as long as you pay enough attention.
