Misoprostol versus curettage in women with early pregnancy failure: impact on women's health-related quality of life. A randomized controlled trial

Abstract

Our study shows that, although both the misoprostol strategy and the curettage strategy resulted in complete evacuation in the end, women are willing to accept some disadvantages of misoprostol to avoid curettage. A treatment inconvenience using misoprostol is accepted as long as initial evacuation rate is high. This finding should be an integral part of counselling women when deciding upon management of early pregnancy failure.
