hi my wife got pregnant and she the baby was 4 weeks.This was an unplanned babay so we went to doctor for abortion. the doctor gave 3 strong pills in the first and then later she prescribed cytolog tablets.My wife is bleeding from last 20 days.When we went again to check for any traces using ultra sound the doctor said there were still traces inside and gave another 8 pills of cytolog.If this time the tablests wont work then she said we have to undergo a 30 minutes surgery. Please let me know if there is way to avoid surgery and remove the traces using pills only.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your history, you have a complain of incomplete abortion which leads to retain product of conception which causes bleeding and cramps. Cytotec removes the retain product in most case. So do not worry it will remove the retained product. But if excessive bleeding (>2 pads/hour for 2 consecutive hours), immediately consult the gynecologist. If drugs do not work, you have to go for minor surgery like D & C. Last option is surgery. Surgery cause complete cure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
