Which is better- abortion by medicine or abortion by surgery?
Both medical and surgical abortions are safe ways to terminate an unwanted pregnancy. However, which is best for who, varies from case to case and primarily on your type and weeks in pregnancy, general health, and personal choices. Therefore, to know what would work best for you, discuss individually with your OBGYN.
However, standard differences between both are as follows:
Medical Abortion:
- -Can only be done until 7-9 weeks
- -Cannot be done in ectopic or molar pregnancies
- -Simple, non-invasive, and very similar to a natural miscarriage.
- -Slower and longer way of passing the pregnancy.
- -May require rest before resuming office
- -More painful and intense cramping and bleeding
Surgical Abortion:
- -Can be done until 24 weeks* [consult our doctors to know more]
- -Slightly invasive 20-30 minutes surgical procedure-Terminates pregnancy immediately.
- -Mild bleeding and cramping
