How Long Does Cytotec Takes To Abort The Pregnancy?

Hi,I had a positive pregnancy test so I took two doses of cyotec. 4-200mcg each. I have had a little cramping and when I go to the restroom I seem small fragments in the toilet but not blood on my pad. Did I abort the pregnancy yet? And how long will it take for me to abort the pregnancy?

Hello,

Abortion process is associated with heavy bleeding, clots and lower abdominal cramp. Generally, it takes 48 to 72 hrs after starting abortion to complete the procedure. However, complete resolution occurs within 7 days.

You need to undergo one pelvic USG scan to check retained bits if any. In such case, D & C may be required. Kindly, consult with your local gynecologist.
