Does Taking Cytotec During Pregnancy Harm The Fetus?

The first time I used 5 cytotec, I swallowed 2 and inserted 3, it failed to work, I waited after a week and swallowed 2 and inserted 2 but it failed again, and again the third times 4 days I swallowed 2 and inserted 3 but it seems they all failed. The first time I used it I blended like for 30 mins only with a clot of blood felt only ones, the bleeding was not much, I used only one pieas of pad, the second time I used I didn t bleed, just a drop of blood came, the third times I tested and I found I was pregnant and I used it and a drop out blood came out. Untill now no blood, just a white slippery substance mixed with little blood coming out. I know I am still pregnant. 1. I want to know if cytotec will affect me. Am I still healthy after using 14 cytotec? 2. If I am still pregnant, will my baby be healthy? 3.will the baby be normal like I didn t use cytotec? I want to know if the cytotec I took still works because it was remaining 2 months to expire?.

Hello,

1. You may be healthy after 14 Cytotec but also you may experience some side effects.

2. Cytotec is not allowed to be used in pregnancy. It may cause malformations.

3. It needs to be seen. It is just a probability matter.

4. If it has not passed expiration date it can still work.

I think you are not pregnant and the abortion happened. The pregnancy home test needs some days to get negative. You better do an ultrasound and blood BhCG before using other tablets.

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

Take care

Regards,
