Is Vaginal Bleeding Post Insertion Of Cytotec In The Vagina A Concern?
Hello. My boyfriend inserted 4 tablets of cytotec in my vagina last week. Am 5 week pregnant. I bleed but it wasn't that heavy for some hours and then it stopped. I was asking if the child dead or is there possibility of me getting a normal kid. This is because he did it against my will. Please advise

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Cytotec is used for medical termination of pregnancy after confirming intrauterine pregnancy by USG scan according to law of abortion in your country and under supervision of gynecologist.
Normally bleeding with tissue will start with in 30-45 minutes after using pill and bleeding continue for 4-5 days depend on gestational age of pregnancy.
You can not continue pregnancy as cytotec cause fetal malformation.
I would suggest to consult gynecologist and undergo vaginal examination and USG scan to know status of abortion.
Remaining product of pregnancy if found, can be removed by extra dose of misoprostol.
Take following advises:
Take proper rest, maintain proper pelvic hygiene,
USG scan at 14th day to confirm completeness process of abortion
Eat healthy diet with iron supplements.
Hope this may help you
