Breast Feeding And Pregnant, Want To Abort. Advised MTP, Mifeprin. Will These Affect The Breast Feeding Baby ?
Hi, I have a 10 month old baby gal whom I am still breast feeding. Also, I am pregnant (5weeks) and want to abort the pregnancy. My doctor adviced for medical MTP and gave me Mifeprin 200 mg (3tab) followed by Misoprost 200 (2tab) after 2 days. I asked her repeatedly if the medicines are safe while I am feeding my little one and she says no. However can I feed my baby. Please advice me

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Whether safe is a vast subject, and more over in such drugs, it is not studied about the lactating mothers.
To be on safe side it is better to avoid the feeding , for a week.
Then you can feed the baby, and if the quantity is low you can have metachlopramide . tablets for 3 days.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
