Patient's question:
Can taking mifepristone alone cause a miscarriage? It seems that many medications for gynecological conditions contain mifepristone. Then does taking it alone cause side effects?Doctor's answer:
The main method of medication-induced abortion involves the combined use of two drugs: mifepristone and misoprostol. If only mifepristone is taken, there is a possibility of a miscarriage occurring again. However, the vast majority of people who take this medication will not experience a miscarriage. The effectiveness of this medication is not good immediately after taking it. Generally, it is necessary to use misoprostol in conjunction to stimulate uterine contractions, which can then expel the fetal tissue out of the body.
