Concerns About Cytotec For Second Abortion Attempt. Will I Be Able To Get Pregnant In Future ?
Hi , I was prescribed cytotec by my doctor to induce abortion- 2 oral 4 in utero . it induced bleeding but then stopped, i was still pregnant . Now at 8 weeks the doctor has prescribed the same. I trust her but i am concerned having read some dangers and side effects. Will i be able to get pregnant in the future? what are the risks if it fails again this time. Does my dosage sound correct?

Hello;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
If cytotec has failed once and you are to try again it is better to be careful.If she is a Gynaecologist please discuss in detail the pros and cons about doing so.If this is the same pregnancy you are trying to abort the better option is to get a D&C done by the Gynaecologist so that abortion is complete this time and there is no failure.Please discuss in detail before starting the course of cytotec.
Thanks
