D&C or misoprostol?!

Question

D&C or misoprostol???

Answer

Depending on where you live if you do the pill you may have to be at the hospital the entire time or just to start it. 
I had a missed miscarriage and decided to go with the pill. The physical pain for me was nothing worse than a bad week of period cramps. I passed everything baby within 6-8 hours after taking the pills, bled a little heavy for about an hour and then had a pretty big polyp that had dislodged block my cervix. Didn't even know I had new ones since I had a polypectomy and d&c done a little over a year before. Had to take the pills a second time and even then had to "help" the polyp out. If I ever have to go through it again I've decided to just go with a d&c as it won't take long and you're home not long after the procedure. Also you have less bleeding after it. The mental pain and heartache will be there no matter what option you go with and that's what you need the most support with.

Answer

I chose the d&c because I just wanted to move on and have 2 other kids to care for and didn't want to miscarry at home.  But I have good insurance coverage, it's considered surgery so if I had a few thousand dollars deductible then I would have done the pill.

Answer

Keep in mind that sometimes the pill doesn't work. I had a MC and didn't miscarry on my own. So my doctor prescribed me the pill. It didn't work. So not only did i have to deal with the pain and everything that comes from the pill. I also had to get a D&C.

Answer

I did misopristol and had terrible contractions for a week straight. Clots were stuck in my cervix so ended up with an emergency D&C anyway

Answer

I've did both for different pregnancies. The pill was so painful. I took it @ night. In the middle of the night I woke up w sharp pains. I went to the hospital they gave me pain meds & later the baby ended up coming out their. I don't think I bled after & got my period soon . . with the d&c I was put to sleep & felt nothing during or after the surgery. BUT the doc told me since it scars ur tissue it gives u less chances of getting pregnant. It took me a long time to get a period & pregnant . . overall getting the information on the d&c id choose the pill over d&c any day.

Answer

I took the pill.. I wanted to be at home with my husband.. neither is a good experience. My doctor really pushed the D&C but I just was really done dealing with doctors and going to the doctors and wanted to be home! I was basically in my bed with a heat pad for 2 days.. and everyone is different but I was bleeding/spotting for about 5 weeks.. my levels finally his zero about 8 weeks after taking the first pill. It was the toughest thing I have ever gone through emotionally. Sorry for your loss, choose what's right for you!

Answer
