Can I have an abortion after 4 weeks of pregnancy?

By Zaira Salvador B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).
Last Update: 09/05/2017

In the first weeks of pregnancy it is possible for the woman to suffer a spontaneous abortion without this having any implication for future pregnancies. In fact, biochemical or microabortion abortions take place during this fourth week of gestation and the woman may confuse them with a simple menstruation.

If the woman wishes to terminate a pregnancy voluntarily, it is possible to take drugs such as Cytotec composed of misoprostol once the pregnancy is confirmed to cause the abortion, always under medical supervision.
