Medical abortion22 year old female 4 weeks pregnant (confirmed by doctor via ultrasound) 170 cm79kgno prior medical history, not on any drugsdo not smoke or during I am 22 and use protection regularly. However I have been very unlucky and had to have 2 prior medical abortions. Both have been due to the condom breaking. Ive fallen pregnant again and I need to terminate it. I understand I sound extremely irresponsible however I do use regular contraception. I wanted to ask since I am 4 weeks I would opt for a medical abortion as opposed to surgical. (also due to financial reasons) I was wondering will my 2 prior abortions affect the effectiveness of having this third one? I have consulted a doctor and he keeps pushing for surgical (i did not inform him of my 2 previous abortions) and now I am very distraught. I do not want a failed medical abortion which will incur me more cost. Please help advice thank you.

'very unlucky and had to have 2 prior medical abortions. Both have been due to the condom breaking.- wrong. You have choosen a method which has high failure rate- condoms. Medical abortion as opposed to surgical. (also due to financial reasons) - no doubt medical is even preferable by medical decision not thinking of financial part at all. 2 prior abortions affect the effectiveness of having this third one?- no I do not want a failed medical abortion which will incur me more cost.- you have to take that chance as medical is not 100 % successful but surgical has more potentiality of risk immediate as well as late.
