Does Cytotec Have An Affect On The Baby?

Posted on Mon, 20 Apr 2015

Question: Hi dr.
I am so confused. Some dr. Said that cytotec does not affect the baby because it relies on the woman's contraction. But others says it affects the baby. What exactly this drug does? Affects the baby or on the mother's body?
