Brief Answer: If bleeding is increasing visit your doctor Detailed Answer: Hi Koy, Thank you for the reply. I have analyzed your answers, some patients we expect this type of heavy bleeding, this indicates that the abortion has started. You might expect the bleeding to decrease and even stop in couple of hours. You need to visit your doctor if the bleeding is increasing or if it is not stopping even after few hours. The reason for uncontrolled heavy bleeding could be due to INCOMPLETE ABORTION, 5 to 10% of patients we expect this problem. And treatment for incomplete abortion is surgical evacuation as an OPD(day care) procedure. And regarding your other symptoms: pain is expected and it is due to abortion process, you need some analgesics for this. Usually mefenamic acid and tranexamic acid combination drugs are given for relieving this symptom. Vomiting and lose stools are side effect of misoprostol tablets. For vomiting Ondansetron will be right drug rather than taking omeprazole.You can speak with your doctor regarding this. Please ask if you have more questions. If you are satisfied, please make sure that your ACCEPT my answer so that I receive credit. Good luck!!

Brief Answer: Keep your self well hydrated. Detailed Answer: Hi, Thank you for the follow up question. Kindly take lots of fluids, as you might become dehydrated. Also take some fruit juices, this is most important thing now. You need to keep yourself well hydrated to prevent HYPOTENSION (low blood pressure due to excessive bleeding). You can take some probiotic preparation like pre-pro for lose stools. Make sure somebody is there with you all the time. If the bleeding is so much that you are soaking 2 or more pads every hourly then you definitely need to visit your doctor. Or if you feel the bleeding is decreasing or not soaking many pads then only you can wait. Please ask if you have more questions. If you are satisfied, please make sure that your ACCEPT my answer so that I receive credit. Good luck!!

Brief Answer: Changing just 1 pad every 6hours is normal. Detailed Answer: Hi, I apologize for the late response; I was away from my computer due to unavoidable reasons. Coming back to your question, But when should expect that bleeding is decreasing? More than the time frame, what is important is how much is your bleeding, mild bleeding means you need to use just 1 pad every 6hours. As I already stated you need to consult your doctor if you are changing more than 2 pads every hour. I presume your bleeding might be reduced now. Fever could be due to Misprostol, this drug is thermogenic. You will feel feverish after using this drug. All the best. Once again I apologize for the late reply. Please ask if you have more questions. If you are satisfied, please make sure that your ACCEPT my answer so that I receive credit. Good luck!!
