Hello Doctor,
My wife took Mifepristone 200 mg to end her pregnancy, but it has been 15 hours, and she has not experienced any bleeding or pain. She now wants to continue the pregnancy. Is it possible for her to continue the pregnancy safely? Will there be any negative effects on the baby if she decides to keep the pregnancy?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
1. It is important for your wife to seek immediate medical evaluation. Mifepristone is designed to block progesterone, a hormone essential for maintaining pregnancy. While some pregnancies may continue if the medication has not fully taken effect, there is a risk of complications, including an incomplete abortion or potential effects on fetal development.
2. She should visit a healthcare provider as soon as possible for an ultrasound to assess the pregnancy status and discuss the best course of action. If she chooses to continue the pregnancy, close monitoring will be necessary to evaluate any potential risks to the baby.
Thanks
