How To Get Rid Of Pregnancy Remnants Post Medical Abortion?
I recently had a medical abortion. I went for my follow up appt today, and I was told that I still had "gunk" in me, so I was given a second dose of misoprostol. Is it ok for me to take baths now? I am still bleeding (more than spotting, but not quite a true menstrual flow).

Hi
After taking medications for medical abortion a small percentage of them dont abort completely.
It is okay for you to take baths. No problem with it.
See your doctor in a week's time. if the pregnancy remnant is still there you may need a D & C.
I hope I have answered to your satisfaction
