Will Cytotec Abort The Pregnancy?

Dear Dr.



I am a 29 year old mother of 3 kids. I am currently 3 months pregnant. I want to use cytotec to abort this pregnancy. Is it possible if I use cytotec and will it work? I am 165cm in height and weigh 65kg. I do not have any medical history.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Cytotec will help in inducing a medical abortion until 9 weeks of pregnancy beyond which it is not helpful and a surgical evacuation is needed to do the abortion.

Moreover, ingestion of Cytotec is to be done after proper evaluation and under the guidance of an expert with a follow-up to ensure completion of the process.

Since you are already 3 months pregnant, the ideal way to terminate your unwanted pregnancy is through surgical means. Please see a specialist for further help.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shanti Vennam
