Brief Answer:
SAFE TO USE
MEDICAL ABORTION PILLS
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thank you for your query.
Firstly, before using an abortion pill (
Mifeprin kit ), it is always recommended to have a gynecological examination.
The
pregnancy has to be confirmed and dated by a doctor and by
ultrasound.
Since you have mentioned that you have got an ultrasound done, please let me know the report and the exact weeks of pregnancy.
The pills should be taken only as per prescription.
Generally 1 tablet of Mifepristone is taken.
Following that , after 24 hours, 2 tablets of
Misoprostol are inserted vaginally, and then after 24 - 48 hours, another 2 tablets are used vaginally ( totally 4 tablets of Misoprostol ).
The bleeding with cramps / passage of tissues will generally start within a day of starting any of the medications.
Bleeding will be heavy with cramps and expulsion of some tissue for a few days, although spotting can persist upto 2 - 3 weeks.
It is compulsory to have a follow up check up ( preferably ultrasound again ) to check that the tablets worked and the
uterine cavity is now empty ( abortion was complete ).
There is a less than 1 % risk of severe uncontrolled bleeding, infection, failure of procedure leading to the need for surgical abortion etc.
In general, the abortion pills are quite safe, and you can definitely use them under medical guidance.
If you vomit out any of the pills, be sure to repeat them.
All the best.
