Objective: To compare days to diagnosis of pregnancy location for same-day medication abortion and same-day uterine aspiration with delayed treatment (expectant management) in patients with undesired pregnancy of unknown location (PUL).
Study Design: We conducted a retrospective cohort study at a single Planned Parenthood health center in Minnesota. We reviewed electronic health records and included patients presenting for induced abortion diagnosed with PUL (positive high-sensitivity urine pregnancy test and no evidence of intrauterine or extrauterine pregnancy on transvaginal ultrasonography) without symptoms or ultrasonographic imaging concerning for ectopic pregnancy (low risk).
