Hi. Thanks for asking in Healthcare Magic.
Progesterone is needed for implantation (attachment) of the fertilized ovum in the uterus. Mifepristone blocks the action of progesterone and prevents implantation resulting in abortion. Cytolog is a substance given to increase uterine contractions.
If the abortion has occurred, then you will be having increased bleeding, passage of clots with severe contractions. Sometimes the abortion will be silent. Too much drugs to increase uterine contractions can result in rupture of uterus and hence it is unwise to take more drug.
If the abortion is incomplete, then the bleeding will continue for more time. In which case you will need an ultra sound to detect it. Incomplete abortion can cause sepsis and you will need D&C to remove the products. If bleeding doesn't start within 48 hours,then you should see your treating Dr immediately.
I hope this is useful to you.
