QuestionMy wife's menstruation cycle was late. She took the medicine "Zmening" (which contain Cimicifuga Racemosa 20mg and Agnus Castus 80mg) pills. On first day, she took 2 pills each time after meals for two times. On the second day, she took 2 pills after meal. She totally took 6 pills in 2 days.
Menstruation did NOT come. Then she took 2 pregnancy tests at home. Both are positive. We want to keep the baby. I want to ask if the pills will affect the baby ?
AnswerHello Donald. These drugs were certainly meant to cause an abortion. However, since it did not happen, this baby must be meant to stay. There is really no way of knowing exactly what harm may have been done to the baby until after birth. However, the action of these drugs is mostly to cause the uterus to contract and empty itself, so chances are they will not have harmed the baby. I wish you all the best- Cheri.
