How long does it take for a miscarriage to occur after taking medication?

Patient's question:

I got pregnant unexpectedly, but the child is not my husband's, so I can't let him know and can't go to the hospital because he is a doctor. Now I can only sneakly get some medicine from a pharmacy. I want to ask, how long does it take for the medicine to cause an abortion to be expelled? Do I need to take supplements?

Doctor's answer:

After medication-induced abortion, the time it takes for the gestational sac to be expelled is generally around 8 hours, but it can vary from person to person. It is advisable to closely monitor your body's condition, rest well, keep your abdomen warm, and after confirming that the gestational sac has been completely expelled, take Chinese angelica orally to promote uterine contraction and expel blood clots. It is also important to undergo anti-inflammatory treatment, enhance nutrition, and eat more qi-boosting foods, which will help in the complete recovery of your body.
