Doctors for How to Confirm a Complete Abortion: Symptoms and Medical Advice

The abortion pill is given in two different doses. The process usually takes 1 to 2 days to complete. Mifepristone is the first pill, it blocks the pregnancy hormone called progesterone. This breaks the lining of the uterus and stops the development of the fetus. The second drug is misoprostol, it helps to expel the fetus through the vagina. After taking both the pills, you may feel the symptoms for a few weeks. The symptoms of miscarriage are as follows -

Cramps And Bleeding

Most women may experience cramps and bleeding a few hours after taking misoprostol. This is a sign of miscarriage. When bleeding occurs, the fetal tissue is coming out of the body. After this, cramps may be felt when the uterus returns to its normal size.

Starting Of Periods

After a miscarriage, a woman gets her periods again. She may start ovulating after 3 weeks. This means that she can get pregnant again. If the pregnancy test comes positive again immediately after the miscarriage, do not panic. This happens because the pregnancy hormones can take some time to get out of the body. Therefore, wait for 3-4 days after the miscarriage to get a negative pregnancy.

Heavy bleeding starts 2-5 hours after taking abortion medicine and it slows down after 24 hours. As soon as the abortion is complete, the bleeding becomes light and the pain reduces. Also, symptoms like fever or nausea also disappear.
