Brief Answer:
yes it is a option for you.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, thanks for posting on HCM.
I understood your question.
Medical abortion is the type of abortion done by taking certain tablets without undergoing any surgical procedure.
In XXXXXXX according to government rules it can be done within 63 day / 9 weeks of gestation. It is so because after that there are other complications of aborting with medicines.
As your USG report says it is 6 weeks 2 days it will be safe to do abortion with medications.
Success rate is about 95-97% so it is very high.
But it will be highly advisable to take the medications after consulting a gynecologist and preferably to take the tablet in the clinic.
I hope I have given satisfactory answer to your query, if you still have any more query kindly write back to me and I will be happy to help.
Thank you.

Brief Answer:
yes they are trustworthy

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir, thanks for following up.

USG reports are very much precise and trustworthy. They will be havin +-1 week here and there. Still you have 3 weeks margin to be on safer side. And as you told your wife last period must be in july ending it comes to almost same gestational age of approximately 6 weeks.
So it is absolutely ok for you people to go ahead with the decision.

As I told you 95-97% success rate is there. Remaining 2-3% may retain some products inside called as incomplete abortion where there is continued bleeding occuring because uterus thinks that foetus is still there but in actual there is some remaining part still attached to wall but no foetus. In this condition patient requires dilatation and curretage which is again a 1 day procedure where they will scrape the uterus from inside for whatever remnants are remaining. It has 100% results.
So do not be worried of it. Consult a gynecologist as i told you in previous answer.

If you have further query kindly revert back with me.
Thank you

Brief Answer:
it will take 24-48hrs. regular normal diet to take

Detailed Answer:
Hello, thanks for follow up.

After she takes the tablet it will take 24 to 48hrs to abort. She will bleed as like her normal periods for 4 to 5 days. And after that next cycle will start normally.
There as no side effects or complications in future. Only complication can be incomplete abortion as i have mentioned in previous answer for which dilatation and curretage is the final solution which will be required in 2-3% patients.
There is no dietary advice. She can take normally whatever diet she is being taking from before.
Do not worry about side effects, it will just like any regular period for her.

I hope it helps.
Thank you
