###Human: Took Misoprostol to induce periods, but I am pregnant now. Will it result in healthy pregnancy? ###Assistant: Hi. First of all, for delayed periods, you should not take Misoprostol. If you have delayed menses, you should confirm pregnancy first and then you can choose other Progesterone-like tablets to induce menses. Secondly, it is true that Misoprostol can cause congenital disabilities if taken in early pregnancy. But not in all case. Now, do sonography to see whether the pregnancy is good or not. If there is no pregnancy, it can be expelled out. As you had a lot of clots, it can be expelled out. There are more chances for you to have an abortion. In case, if the pregnancy is safe, a decision should be made for continuing pregnancy. It depends on you and your husband. But if there is any genetic damage present in the baby, it can cause irreversible damage to the baby. It may be or may not be there. There is no other practical way available to declare that the child is 100 % healthy. If you both plan to continue, you have to be prepared for a healthy as well as for an unhealthy baby. Chances are 50 to 50. As you do not have a child, and as your age is increasing, it is a tough situation to decide to have a child. It is in your hands to decide the future and the preparation to handle anything. You do not know whether you will become pregnant or not next time. So think all the possibilities. Consider your situation, financial status, mental preparation, and eagerness for a child. Think and decide.
