Question: as recommended by dr my did obertion through medicine in consultation of local Doctor. everthing seems to be alright pain is subsided now what would be the next step. kindly advice
Brief Answer:
Ultrasound after 15 days of medical abortion
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. If there is no more bleeding and pain after the medical abortion, she should get a repeat ultrasound after 15 days of the medical abortion to confirm whether the process of abortion has completed or not.
Moreover, she should take nutritious diet and multivitamins to make her body recover.
You both should plan after at least 6 months from now. She should start taking folic acid 5 mg once a day from 2 months prior to planning conception, as taking it preconceptionally and in early pregnancy is known to reduce the risk of abortion and congenital anomalies in the fetus.
Hope you found the answer helpful. Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you both good health.
