How many days is the most suitable time to take abortion pills

The optimal time to take abortion pills is usually within 49 days of pregnancy, depending on the type of medication and the doctor's evaluation. Medical abortion is mainly suitable for early pregnancy, and exceeding the time limit may increase the risk. Mifepristone combined with misoprostol is a commonly used medication for abortion, which should be taken in divided doses under the supervision of a doctor. Before the first medication, it is necessary to confirm intrauterine pregnancy and gestational age through ultrasound, and exclude contraindications such as ectopic pregnancy. After medication, vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain may occur, and it is necessary to observe whether the pregnant tissue is completely discharged. Some women may experience medication reactions such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, and seek medical attention immediately if they have severe allergies or heavy bleeding. When pregnancy exceeds 7 weeks, the sensitivity of the uterus to drugs decreases, which may lead to incomplete abortion or heavy bleeding. At this time, it is usually recommended to choose induced abortion surgery. People with chronic diseases, long-term medication history, or coagulation dysfunction have a higher risk of medical abortion. After abortion, it is necessary to have a follow-up ultrasound to confirm the cleanliness of the uterine cavity. Bathing and sexual activity are prohibited within two weeks, and antibiotics should be taken according to medical advice to prevent infection. After a medical abortion, it is recommended to rest for two weeks and avoid strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor. Supplement high-quality protein and iron rich foods such as lean meat and animal liver in diet to help restore qi and blood. Keep the perineum clean, wash with warm water daily, and change sanitary pads frequently. When experiencing fever, persistent abdominal pain, or bleeding exceeding menstrual flow, it is necessary to promptly return for diagnosis. Ovarian function usually recovers within four weeks after abortion, and contraceptive measures should be taken to avoid short-term re pregnancy.
