Question

My Cytotec(misoprostol) story... When will I ovulate now??

My OB confirmed I had a blight ovum over 3 weeks ago. I was 5.2 weeks along. My body did start the process naturally but did not finish its job. Rather than going to the d&c, my doc recommended the use of cytotec. Given my body had already began the process as well as this being very early with only a gest sac I decided it was a good option. I was instructed to take 4 pills vaginally. I waited for hours!!! It wasnt until about 8 hours after that i started to feel anything. Bad cramps but nothing I couldnt handle (i have 3 healthy beautiful kids so this was a walk in the park) finally went to the bathroom and passed what I think was the gestation sac. I didn't examine it. Not my thing but it was more than just a clot (TMI). Now I have period like bleeding and no cramps. All in all this was painless for me. Now I am wondering when will i ovulate againAnd when can we TTC???? Anyone use this medication and concieve right away

I used it in November at 13 weeks when something similar happened to me. I bled for about 2 weeks and ovulated 4 weeks after taking it. My doctor said to wait for one period before I could start trying again so that they can date the next pregnancy if we started trying again right away and to make sure anything left behind from the miscarriage comes out with the first period.

Hi, I had a miscarriage a couple of weeks ago, I was 7 weeks, my doctor prescribed misoprostol but didn't do anything except for a lot of dizziness and some cramping so I end up having a dnc. There is a lot of controversy about how long should wait to try and conceive, usually I would wait 2 cycles so your proud period is well established and to heal physically and emotionally. Good luck to you!
