Summary

This study compares two ways of giving misoprostol—by mouth or vaginally—to women who have a missed abortion in the first trimester. The goal is to see which route works better and causes fewer side effects. One hundred women will take part, and researchers will measure how quickly the pregnancy tissue is expelled and whether any remains in the uterus.
