How to have an abortion one month after pregnancy
I've been pregnant for almost a month, but I don't want to have a child at this time. I would like to ask, what are the options for terminating a pregnancy at one month, and which method is safer?
Doctor's answer (1)
When a woman is one month pregnant, she may choose either medical abortion or surgical abortion.
Medical abortion is usually suitable for healthy women within 49 days of pregnancy. The medication must be obtained from a legitimate hospital and administered under a doctor's supervision. Medical abortion may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, abdominal pain, and other side effects, and is not highly effective, sometimes requiring a second uterine evacuation.
Surgical abortion is suitable for women who are more than 45 days pregnant. The procedure involves dilating the vagina with surgical instruments, inserting a suction tube into the uterine cavity, and using negative pressure to remove the pregnancy tissue. The doctor will evaluate the specific situation and provide a safe and appropriate method of abortion.
Regardless of the chosen method, adequate rest and recovery after the procedure are essential to avoid unnecessary harm to the body. Following an abortion, the body is relatively weak and requires careful care. Regarding diet, it is important to maintain nutritional balance and consume more protein-rich foods such as eggs, milk, and fish.
Personal hygiene should not be neglected. Maintain external genital cleanliness, change underwear and sanitary products frequently, and avoid tub baths and sexual intercourse for one month to prevent bacterial ascending infections that could lead to gynecological diseases.
