After a failed medication abortion, the patient may choose to have the procedure performed to clear the uterus for remedy. Although the medication abortion fails to promote the gestational sac or mucosa to be expelled outside the patient’s uterine cavity, the medication used in the process of medication abortion can play a softening effect on the patient’s cervix. Therefore, the damage to the patient is relatively small when the procedure is performed. After taking mifepristone and misoprostol, the patient’s cervix is softer, so the pain during the dilation process is generally mild. In addition, while the patient is taking mifepristone and misoprostol, the embryo may be less active or may have died, and some of the tissue may have detached from the uterine cavity. Therefore, it is generally easier to clear the uterus, which is usually brief and causes less damage to the patient’s uterine lining.
