Is It Safe To Continue With Pregnancy After Many Dosages Of Cytotec?
Today Im in a middle of a situation where I dont know what to choose. Im currently pregnant for almost 10 weeks now. My problem is when it was 4-6weeks I attempted to abort it and so I took cytotec. At first I took 3 then nothing happened then I took 6 Still nothing happened lastly I took 8 and nothing happened. Now I want to continue my pregnancy but Im afraid of the effect on my baby. What could possibly happen to him

Cytotec is not a teratogen per se, this means that it is not related to a particular fetal malformation. fetal damage due to cyto is related to the mechanical abortion it produces. when pregnancy continues in spite of an abortion attempt we usually get a healthy newborn provided the mother takes good care of her pregnancy and loves her baby
