Question
i was five weeks preg. and under went a medical abortion. the methotrexate injection stopped the pregnancy, but the misoprostol tablets did not work. I took them three times, twice i inserted them in my vagina and third time under my tounge. Since the pregnancy has stopped should I just wait and let my body pass the tissue??? If I do that how long does that take? I took the injection on nov 24, so its been four weeks. I'm not sure what to do.

Answer
Hi Jody,

I found your question in the question pool at Allexperts.com
Evidently whoever you asked the question to was not able to answer for some reason. That is how I found your question in the pool right now. I know it's been a while since you asked the question so I'm thinking that things have changed since you posted. Let me know if I can be of any further help at this point and how things worked out.
Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
