Is there no bleeding if the medication abortion has failed?

Patient's question:

An hour ago, I took misoprostol tablets, and my stomach hurt for more than half an hour. Now it doesn't hurt anymore, but there's no bleeding. Is it a failed medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

In your current situation, it falls within the process of medication-induced abortion. Not having vaginal bleeding one hour after taking the medication is a normal phenomenon, as it is due to the short duration of medication intake. It is recommended that you closely monitor your vaginal bleeding during this period, while also ensuring adequate rest and avoiding excessive physical activity. Additionally, refrain from consuming spicy or irritating foods in your diet.
