My ultrasound results says the baby is healthy.. But i have subchoroinic hemorrhage.. So i decided to continue drinking herbal tea, maybe pineapple and papaya Will also help me for home abortion..

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. There has not been any evidence that suggests papaya and pineapple cause successful abortion. You have taken cytotec that cause bleeding but it is inadequate and improper dose that does not cause successful abortion. I would suggest to consult a gynecologist for successful and safe abortion.

For terminating 11 week pregnancy, following are the options:

Medical treatment: -- Vaginal route: misoprostol. Induction abortion interval is around 15 hours.
Surgical treatment -- Suction evacuation.

You should go for surgical process as it is successful and bleeding is less compared to medical treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dholariya Sagar Jayantilal
