I’ve heard that MTP kits can cause side effects like severe pain, nausea, or heavy bleeding. Are these effects temporary, or can they cause long-term damage to the uterus? How do doctors monitor whether the abortion is complete?

The side effects you mentioned, like cramps, nausea, diarrhea, or heavy bleeding, are temporary and usually settle in a few days. They are part of the body’s natural response as it clears the pregnancy. Abortion pills do not cause long-term damage to the uterus if used correctly. Doctors usually monitor the process by doing a follow-up ultrasound after one to two weeks to confirm that the uterus is empty. Sometimes a blood test for pregnancy hormones is also done. This step is important because it ensures the abortion is complete and there is no retained tissue that could lead to infection or prolonged bleeding.
