Where can I buy the medicine for medical abortion?

Generally speaking, when a woman finds out she is unexpectedly pregnant, she will choose medical abortion to terminate the pregnancy, mainly because medical abortion is more convenient than surgical abortion. If an abortion can be achieved after taking the medicine, then where can one buy the medicine for medical abortion?

1. Are drugs for medical abortion sold in pharmacies?

Drugs for medical abortion are generally not sold in pharmacies because these drugs are related to family planning policies. You can go to hospital pharmacies or family planning service points to buy them.

2. The best time for medical abortion

The best time for medical abortion is generally within 7 weeks (49 days) of pregnancy (calculated from the beginning of menstruation). Medical abortion can only be performed if it is an intrauterine pregnancy. If it is an ectopic pregnancy, medical abortion may cause internal bleeding.

3. Common problems before medical abortion

1. Generally, women who have tested positive for early pregnancy within 49 days of amenorrhea and require termination of pregnancy must undergo B-ultrasound examination before choosing medical abortion. Only after confirming that it is an intrauterine pregnancy and understanding the location and size of the gestational sac can they decide whether to have medical abortion. If the gestational sac is in the corner of the uterus or close to the cervix, medical abortion cannot be performed, otherwise internal bleeding is likely to occur, which can seriously endanger life.

2. If you are too young (under 20 years old) or too old (over 40 years old); have severe menstrual disorders; have heart disease, hepatitis, endocrine diseases, blood diseases, gastrointestinal ulcers, asthma and glaucoma; have ovarian cysts and gynecological tumors; are pregnant with an IUD; have a history of unsuccessful medical abortion or prolonged vaginal bleeding after medical abortion, etc., you should not choose medical abortion.

3. Those who have recently undergone abortion or have postoperative scars on their uterus; those who have used pregnancy-maintaining drugs such as corpus luteum copper after pregnancy should also choose medical abortion with caution. These factors can easily increase the failure rate of medical abortion and lead to another curettage.

After the editor's introduction, I believe that all ladies have a certain understanding. In fact, medical abortion usually takes 3-4 days from taking medicine to miscarriage, so there are certain risks in the process. Therefore, ladies who choose medical abortion must go to a reliable hospital and be under the supervision of professional medical staff to ensure safety.
