It's not essential for the procedure, but it should make it more comfortable for you. It just needs to get into your vagina, as close to your cervix as you can get it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cytotec#post-1717062 Mon, 23 Jun 2014 16:36:59 +0000 bpcmarj 1717062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took it orally during my induction to softwn my cervix so that I would hopefully dialate more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cytotec#post-1716741 Mon, 23 Jun 2014 14:14:32 +0000 babycanuck 1716741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: OH that's good then.

I inserted it vaginally-just shoved them up as far as they could go (sorry if that's TMI!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cytotec#post-1716626 Mon, 23 Jun 2014 13:34:03 +0000 ValentineMommy 1716626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was given Cytotec (orally) to take after my D&amp;C to soften my cervix and allow tissue/clots to be expelled more easily. It can be taken as an alternative to having a D&amp;C as well.</p> <p>What is your biopsy for? </p> <p>I know the medicine is traditionally an ulcer medication somehow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cytotec#post-1716612 Mon, 23 Jun 2014 13:25:43 +0000 babycanuck 1716612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What is this used for? I was told by my RE to insert it the night before a biopsy. Do I put it all the way in? Partway? What should I expect from this?</p> <p>I need real life people telling me what's up, not webmd :) </p>
