Hi Kajal,

Thank you so much for this query. I am so sorry to hear about the difficulties you have had with your menstrual cycle.

Please, mtprost is used for abortion and not to provoke menses. Were you pregnant? not too sure about this. It is not rare nor abnormal to have ladies whose periods delay by a few days or show up earlier.

Don't take any more mtprost. I will suggest that you get evaluated and treated for the possible cause of any menstrual irregularities. Please, see your OBGYN.

I hope you find this helpful.
Wish you all the best. Feel free to ask me more questions if need be.

Hello,

MTPROST is abortion pill. Without confirmation of pregnancy, it should not be taken or advisable. Otherwise, it may give some adverse effect like irregular excessive vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, fainting, headache etc.

It should be taken under supervision of doctor in case of positive pregnancy test and you want to abort it. Here, you need to undergo one home pregnancy test. According to report, you must consult with gynecologist if you do not get your period.

You can use regular or emergency contraceptive pill to prevent unwanted pregnancy. Kindly consult with your doctor.

Practice safe sex in future. Good luck.
