A member asked:

Can you wear a tampon when bleeding from the abortion pill?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Prefer mini pad: Most MD's prefer a mini pad as it will get changed regularly and reduces the risk of infection from a retained tampon post abortion. It will "ALWAYS" catch what is necessary.
