Can I have abortion at 70 days of pregnancy?

When the pregnancy is about seventy days, the fetus is relatively large. If you do not want the child for some reason at this time, you can have an artificial abortion. There is a certain time limit for medical abortion. It can be done before 49 days of pregnancy, but it is no longer suitable after around 70 days. We should pay attention to this aspect. Let's take a look.

What is the best time for medical abortion?

Experts say that the best time for medical abortion is to terminate the pregnancy within 49 days after an unexpected pregnancy. Of course, this is only a reference time for medical abortion. The specific time for medical abortion is mainly based on the results of B-ultrasound examination. Medical abortion is appropriate when the gestational sac reaches a certain size. It is not as people usually think that the earlier the medical abortion is done, the better.

For medical abortion, most hospitals require taking abortion drugs on an empty stomach for two consecutive days (the dosage is as prescribed by the doctor), and it is best to fast for 1 hour after taking the drugs. On the third morning, take another abortion drug on an empty stomach.

After taking the medicine, the adverse reactions are mild and most women do not feel anything. After taking the medicine, you can go home and work as usual. A few people may experience mild dizziness, abdominal pain, and a small amount of vaginal bleeding. After taking the second drug, about 70% of people will expel the fetal sac within 4-6 hours.

The fetal sac discharged with the blood is pink fleshy tissue, and sometimes a small blister can be seen inside it. If the fetal sac is not expelled during observation in the hospital, pay attention to vaginal discharge after returning home. At this time, special attention should be paid to distinguishing it from blood clots. After one week, you should take the discharge to the hospital for a follow-up examination. A small number of women (4%-5%) will expel the gestational sac by taking mifepristone alone. If the bleeding is not too much, you can use a clean small bottle to store and retain the discharge and take it to the hospital for examination on the third day (the day when you originally scheduled to take misoprostol). If the bleeding is heavy, you should immediately take the discharge to the hospital emergency room.

Symptoms of unclean drug abortion

1. Nausea and aversion to greasy food: Another typical symptom of incomplete medical abortion is nausea, aversion to greasy food, lower abdominal pain, and continuous vaginal bleeding.

2. Infection may occur if medical abortion is not clean: If the B-ultrasound shows no residue in the uterus, then infection in the uterus should be considered, because the blood from medical abortion is a good breeding ground for bacteria. If medical abortion is not clean and vomiting occurs, the situation is serious. During the gynecological examination, the uterus will be tender, and there will be symptoms such as fever.

3. Bleeding time after medical abortion: It usually manifests as lower abdominal pain and continuous vaginal bleeding. The bleeding time after medical abortion is 1-3 weeks, and the manifestation is that the amount of bleeding gradually decreases. If the bleeding decreases and then increases, or does not decrease at all or gradually increases, these are symptoms of incomplete medical abortion.

The above is what the editor introduced to you today. I hope it will be helpful to you! It is generally best to have a medical abortion within 49 days, the sooner the better. Medical abortion may not be complete, so I suggest you go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination. Have regular checkups and keep your doctor's instructions in mind. At the same time, you should take good care of yourself and get enough rest. Finally, I wish you good health!
