Patient's question:
Because I have been drinking Yi Mu Cao during my period before, and now I am pregnant. Will drinking Yi Mu Cao in early pregnancy cause a miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Motherwort has the effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis. If you take motherwort orally during the early stages of pregnancy, it may potentially lead to a miscarriage again. If you have carefully confirmed that you are pregnant and do not want the baby, you cannot take motherwort to induce a miscarriage. Motherwort is not a medication for inducing miscarriage. You can choose medications for medical abortion, such as mifepristone tablets or misoprostol, but it is essential to follow the doctor's advice when taking medication.
