Spotting After Abortion Pill: What's Normal & When to Worry?


Question
I've taking my abortion pills over three weeks now but im still spotting....I have not been for my follow up but I feel fine...I'm just curious to know if this is normal for spotting after three weeks. ..I was approaching the three months mark when I did this.

Answer
Hello, Stacey,

Evidently you sent the question to another expert, who didn't answer. I don't normally check the question pool, and I apologize for the delay in providing an answer.

You said that you took the pills at three months. Ordinarily, they won't work that late in pregnancy. Are you experiencing symptoms of pregnancy? By now, you should be able to feel your uterus, and possibly even see it expanding your waist. Pills will often cause spotting or bleeding, and this can go on for weeks or months. Did you pass a lot of blood to begin with, and did you pass anything other than blood?

I don't know what country you are in, but there is help for women in your position in some countries. If you tell me what country you are in, I will see if help is available.

Please do not take any more pills. They can kill you, or greatly weaken you. They can cause other medical problems, some of them serious. Please take good care of yourself, and let me know how you are doing.
