Hi doctor. Am 29 years old .i had 5month abortion 4months ago by taking misoprostol as the baby had spina bifida .now am 2month pregnant.i have a daughter who is 4year old .I had to undergo c-section. Is it safe for me to continue this pregnancy. Please give advice.
Hello, Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. You can go ahead with your pregnancy after a preliminary evaluation. If possible, you can ask for fetal DNA analysis to detect if any chromosomal disorders are present in the embryo. Further management can be planned accordingly. There is no problem to continue the pregnancy to full term since your previous delivery through abdominal mode was two years ago. In fact, you used Misoprostol to induce uterine contraction to induce abortion which was uneventful and this means your scar is healthy. Please take vitamins and have regular follow up. Take care.
