What Could Very Light Bleeding With On And Off Brown Spotting After Taking Misoprotol Tablets Mean?

Hi I took the abortion pill yesterday (4 misoprotol)...i expected to have lots of cramping and bleeding, but that didnt happen. Im wondering if I should be concerned. There was almost no cramping and VERY light bleeding. In fact I only bled for a few minutes, only when I went to the bathroom to urinate. I believe I saw the small gestational sac (approximately 1 inch or less). I went to be and woke up and there was no blood on the sanitary napkin, again, only a little when I urinated. Now there is only intermittent brown spotting. I am concerned as it hasnt even been 24 hours since I took the pill. Does this mean it didnt work? I was 6wks...

If I were your doctor, I would have advised you for a follow up serum HCG test and an ultrasound of abdomen to be sure of the situation to proceed further in your medical management.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
