Took Miferstone Followed By Misoprostol. Bleeding Heavily With Clots. Experiencing Cramps And Pregnancy Was Terminated. Cure?

default
Posted on Tue, 22 Oct 2013
Question: hi

I am 26 yrs. I took 200 mg mifepristone on 1st day followed by 4 tablets of misoprostol on the third day to abort 6 weeks pregnancy. I bleed heavily with clots after taking mifepristone. After misoprostol intake i experienced cramps but, bleeding is not as heavy as on the day after i took mifepristone. So, is this means abortion is done? 3 years back i've taken these pregnancy pills and even though i bleed less, my pregnancy was terminated completely. I am worried about. please help. !!!

Hi

Thanks for the answer. I am so relief!! I have one more question. Do the duration/ length of pregnancy has something to do with the amount of bleeding? Mean, lesser gestation period do have lesser bleeding than those longer gestation? I heard in lesser than 6 or 7 weeks pregnancy, bleeding is not heavy compared to longer weeks. Clarify my doubt.

Also, what should you do for some itching/irritation in the vaginal area experienced after taking these medicines.

hi

Detailed Answer:
hi, bleeding will be more generally if gestation is more weeks. Right now dont do anything for itching. Use local applied anti-fungal creams after next cycle. Regards
