Is a miscarriage painful?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Not all miscarriages are physically painful, but most of them have cramping. The cramps are really strong for some people and light for others.

I'm a bit concerned after taking misoprostol last night at 9:40 pm. I experienced some moderate cramping but didn't notice any significant bleeding. Around 4 am, there was a little bleeding but it stopped quickly, though I'm still having on-and-off cramps. Ive been advised to take another dose of misoprostol again at 9:40 pm tonight. Is this normal, or could it be a sign of an incomplete abortion?

Based on your symptoms, it appears that the misoprostol is taking effect, but the abortion process may not be complete, as evidenced by the moderate cramping, initial bleeding that stopped, and the need for a second dose of misoprostol, which is a common practice to ensure complete abortion, but it's essential to follow up with your healthcare provider within 24-48 hours to confirm the completeness of the abortion and rule out any potential complications.

I'm worried about the side effects of taking birth control pills. How long after taking them can I find out if I'm pregnant?

Common adverse effects of contraceptive pills include nausea, breast tenderness, mood changes, weight gain, and increased risk of blood clots, stroke, and high blood pressure; to confirm pregnancy, a home pregnancy test (HPT) can detect hCG hormone levels 7-10 days after conception, with accuracy increasing 2-3 days after a missed period, while a blood test can detect pregnancy 6-8 days after conception.
