Hello
Thanks for your query.
I will try my best to provide you with best possible professional recommendations to your questions.
I don't think there will be any complications. At 5 weeks embryo still hasn't grown much. It's about 0.05 inches long. As mentioned, you have undergone c section 5 month back and scar will be healed by this time and even ultrasound has not shown any abnormality.
Question of rupture emerges, when you have completed 9 month and trying for normal delivery, as you have previous history of c section.
You can take the tablet prescribed by your doctor for abortion. I advice you not to take the tablet without the supervision of the doctor.
After the consumption of tablet within 8 hour bleeding will start. Approximately 90% of women will have a complete abortion within 24 hours of using the drug.
Side effects - Abdominal cramping and bleeding are hallmarks of the abortion process itself. Others like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, and chills.
I advice you to consult doctor if the heavy bleeding continues for 5 to 6 days and fever begins more than 6 to 8 hours after the administration of last drug.
Fifteen days later, you should go to the doctor for an evaluation to make sure the abortion is complete. Completion is often clinically evident, but sometimes an ultrasound is necessary for confirmation.
Yet again, I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Hope i have cleared your queries. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer

Hello madam
Great to hear from you.
I think the backache and pain in the hand are not related to your c section.
You are very anxious and trying to relate most of the symptoms to c section. For the back ache and pain over the counter pain killers will be helpful.
Have you consulted the prescribing doctor before stopping the uvox tablet, if not i advice you consult the doctor.
Regarding the abortion have taken those pills, if yes along with the bleeding you will also get cramping pain sometimes radiating to back.
I advice you to relax and discuss with your close ones come to decision. By your given in information you should not have any problem related to stitches presently.
If you are not planning to be pregnant i advice you to use one or the other method of contraception.
Hope i have provided the information you needed.
Wish you good health.
Take care.

i went to the doctor today she told we will go with evacuation because if tablets does not work or it will leave some tissue again we have to go with this evacuation, this will take 2 weeks as we have to wait until rescan to declare whether the tablet has worked completely or not process only
so we will go for evacuation so that the process will be done at once
and also u have a tender scar this is much safer than tablets
they r going to perform this under general anesthesia
what is evacuation what will they do, is it safe?

Hi XXXXXXX
After you have taken the pills, around 15 th day scan is done to confirm whether the abortion is complete or not, if there are signs of incomplete abortion the products of conception should be removed by other means like Dilation and evacuation.
Dilatation and evacuation is usually done in the second 12 week of pregnancy. In here cervix is dilated and products are evacuated from uterus.
Dilation and evacuation is a safe and effective method. Usually takes 30 minutes. It is usually done in a hospital but does not require an overnight stay.
I advice you to speak with the consulting clinician and clear your doubts, you will be fine. In case of incomplete abortion you have to go for D and E, so to prevent any such things i think they are going for D and E.
