Question
Hi,
I had Mifegest kit on 11th December 2010 and the bleeding started on 13th December 2010. Initially it was in form of big clots (size of a peach) but later reduced to less flow which was brown in color, similar to the flow I have on 4th day of my regular period. My concern is that my period hasnt stopped till then and I am having the brown discharge since then.
Yesterday the flow increased and I am now having discharge which is red and also contains white tissue particles. Has my placenta wall reformed (considering that the flow never stopped) so that I am now having my regular period post abortion?
I didnt have any syptoms of fever, dizziness or cramping. Please suggest whether this is normal?

Answer
Hello, shini,

Unfortunately, women are bleeding to death in India after taking those pills. This is serious, and you need to stop the bleeding. One thing you can try is to make sure and get food with cayenne (red hot peppers) in it, or take a supplement. You should eat this on a regular basis.

You should also see a doctor. You are bleeding far too much, and this will weaken you, and lower your immunity.

If the abortion was successful, you won't have a placenta anymore. It sounds like possibly you are having a period. But the bleeding after taking the pills is erratic and can increase to dangerous proportions quickly.

These pills are dangerous. Please do not ever take them again.

I wish I could tell you more, but at this point, only a person who can examine and test you can tell you for sure what is going on.  Please take care. Let me know how you do.
