Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Zytotec ( misprostol ) is used to abort and after full dose you have to wait 72 hours for bleeding . Good luck.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, ANILALI

Thanks for the followup.

Yes, mild to moderate degree pain just in pelvic area indicates that contraction of uterus has started and bleeding may start any time.

If the pain is present, tablets are working. You should consult your gynecologist if the bleeding is too much or is not stopping .

Good luck for your health.

Regards.

Dr. Het.
