Brief Answer:
surgical is better than medical termination

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX thanks for trusting health care magic.
Your gynecologist is right in advocating for surgical method for termination and I support her as
- your pregnancy is past 6 weeks so surgical method will be better for complete clearance if uterine cavity
- surgical procedure is almost painless during and after the procedure
- it ensures complete evacuation and eliminates the chance of incomplete abortion which is commonly seen with pills.
MEDICAL ABORTION now a days is given only when patient is unfit for anesthesia or if patient is too scared to go for surgical procedure.
BUT it is very safe and almost painless so I would advice you SURGICAL TERMINATION.
I hope I have answered your question but in case you have any other query I will be happy to help.
