Dr. Shilpi Sachdev, who is a gynecologist at Apollo Cradle Hospital, New Delhi, has told The Health Sites that abortion at home is not safe without doctor's advice.
Abortion pills and safety
The intake of abortion pills can be dangerous without detecting the duration of pregnancy and location. If pregnancy is less than eight weeks, then the success rate of these pills is around 94%. But if there is conception outside the uterus then it can prove to be fatal. In addition, if pregnancy has last longer, it can cause more bleeding, which can become a cause of danger for life.
Why is it necessary to consult a doctor
Dr. Shilpi Sachdev says that many women take abortion pills without doctor's advice, which can lead to many complications. Without a doctor's advice and ultrasound, it is difficult to identify conditions such as atopic pregnancy. This type of abortion may increase the risk of life, which can be extremely dangerous for any woman.
How do abortion pills work?
Abortion pills block the receptors of progesterone, causing uterine contractions. This process can usually be done up to seven weeks. It is successful in 90–95% of cases by taking dosage correctly of pills.
Abortion
After abortion at home, women usually experience vaginal cramps and heavy bleeding, which is like a heavy menstruation. However, despite taking pills correctly, surgical may be required in 5–10% of cases.
Are these pills safe for people with health problems?
If the woman is allergic to abortion pills, then they should not consume it. But if the woman has problems like diabetes, high BP or thyroid, then these pills are usually safe, provided the doctor is consulted.
