Abortion and medical abortion are different in terms of pregnancy cycle. For example, medical abortion is mainly suitable for pregnant women within 10 weeks of pregnancy, while induction of labor is suitable for pregnant women between 13 and 24 weeks of pregnancy. In addition, medical abortion mainly promotes embryo ejection through drug action, while induction of labor requires surgery.
