How Can I Know If My Medical Abortion Was Successful?
It’s been a week since my medical abortion, I only took misoprostol.. I did bleed and have bad cramps with blood cloths and diarrhea. Now, I am still bleeding, still pass little blood cloths here and there . Bleeding is not heavy at all. No pregnancy symptoms. && I do feel like little flutters or little “kicks” is that normal? Was the abortion successful?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The beta hCG levels and ultrasound examination shows if the abortion was successful or not. The bloody secretions should stop within a week and if they continue you maybe are having incomplete abortion. The fetal movement can be felt after 12 weeks at least.
Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
