Materials and Methods: In this study, 220 pregnant women
(under 14 week’s gestational age) who candidate for termination of
pregnancy (due to fetal or maternal reasons) were divided into the
treatment and surgery groups. In the medical abortion group, 600
µg vaginal misoprostol was given, then 36 hours later if needed this
dose was repeated. However, if the remains of the pregnancy were
observed by ultrasound 1 week after the initial dose, the curettage
was done. Suction curettage was used in the surgical abortion
group.
Results: In general, 79% of treatment group had a complete abortion
without the need for surgical abortion. In all subjects of surgical
groups, all products of pregnancy with surgical curettage were fully
discharged. The mean satisfaction from amount of bleeding in the
drug and medical abortion groups was 80% and 84%, respectively
with no statistical difference.
Conclusion:The obtained results showed that misoprostol as an
effective alternative to surgical termination of pregnancy can be
used at the first trimester abortions.

Given that , there are also some studies that million abortions per year are performed in compared to the surgery and this study aimed methods exist for termination of pregnancyin the first trimester of pregnancy that the Materials and Methods
A randomized controlled clinical trial study medicine methods (7). Indeed, nearly half of was designed Through the period from July all legal abortions are carried out by induced 2007 to July 2009, healthy subjects between abortion therapy and pregnancy termination carried out only by surgery so that, in 97% of methods were randomly divided equally into procedures is cervical dilatation method and abortion procedure: Group surgical method The patients were selected based on:1- Patient suctioned that is easier and safer method awareness of both surgical and medical of comparison with the previous one.

Therefore,the present study investigated the comparison of the two abortion methods , In statistically significant differences between a clinical trial that is currently being carried out around the world. the most pregnant cases in both groups were at 10 weeks gestation.

The results showed that the age, gestational null pregnancy and inevitable abortion, the age, gravity and parity numbers were similar in both groups. Therefore, in terms of the differed significantly and in the medicine abortion there was a consistent in the two group this rates was higher than other group so that the bleeding rate of more than four- fifths cases of this group were higher than different reasons to perpetrate a abortion and ultrasound exam of the dead fetus (missed Jentashapir J Health Res, 2013; 4(5)

postoperative bleeding was low so that the curettage. In this study, the rate of complete bleeding more than a normal period in less In one study by Davis et al.,(11) between 2002 and 2004 as a clinical trial 652 women indicated the fewer side effects and accepting was studied to assess the bleeding patterns In another study that conducted in Greece misoprostol ,in overall, cause to being more and was published in 2008 was reported that severe and last longer bleeding than suction curettage. This study also suggested that hemoglobin levels after taking drug rarely is causing any interference with curettage or blood transfusion. It’s outstanding to note that the results of the present study in terms In another study, for inducing abortion in women with a gestational age of less than 70 mention study and other completed studies.
Patient’s satisfaction in the present study vaginally every 48 hours (up to three doses) was similar in both treatment groups and the was used. The results showed that the rate majority of them expressed satisfaction for completed studies on misoprostol, majority While, in another study that conducted by of patients were satisfied with the medicine Carbonel et al., (16) in women with amenorrhea for a period of 36-63 days, the who they are in a similar situation . In this hours and the rate of pregnancy termination of 89.4 percent was reported that this amount was comparable with results of Bugalho et In the current study, the success rate of al., (91.1%) (17) and Jian et al., (88%) (19).
