What Causes Cramps After Taking Misoprostol?
My dr prescribed 2 pills of 200mcg of Misoprostol to use 1 two days in a row 24 hours apart. Took one this am and I got a little cramps that s all. I ll take another tomorrow am. This seems like a low dose? Am I wasting my time? Btw I had a missed miscarriage. Baby quit growing at 6w5d. It s been 2 weeks.
