Mumsnet Talk

I understand - you're not saying it happened, you're saying your friend told you it did and you want to know if it could be true.

i'd say it isn't, but I don'g know if your friend is bulling or if she believes it to be plausible

Complete bollocks

I don't believe the OP is a troll, but I do think the story is a sack of shite.

i dont understand why people are reporting this as a troll? its quite obvious the OP is asking about the validity of her friends claims.

MN is weird tonight.

I only had one vg pessery but also an oral one. Unless his Sis is a nurse prescriber I doubt he would have gotten anything off her. Even if she is it's a big risk to take giving your bro a controlled drug. Also levels don't drop that fast.

This reads like a weird urban myth

No doubt it'll be spreading through Facebook like wildfire in a couple of weeks.

Red plastic spoon, sorry should I have put a warning on this thread? I need to know if it's bullshit. I have had a medical abortion, and for me, in my case, there was only one vaginal pessary.

I don't really care if people think this is bullshit. I only want to know if this is remotely possible. Really, I am massively relieved if it is.

I'm not saying, THIS IS TRUE. It is a reported story, and although I would like to think my friend is sane and would not lie, she is clearly going through a difficult time.

Someone is lying here.

I had medical treatment following a mmc - I had to take oral medication, then wait 48 hours, then insert 2 pessaries, then I needed a further 2 doses. It really isn't that 'easy'

Clearly bollocks.

I have too.

Generally reportable threads make me laugh but I actually find this one offensive

Im glad, redplasticspoon

If what any says is right, and your friend told you her doctor said it was zero, the your friend is making up huge massive great porky pies to you.

This thread has upset me a bit but i know im being a bit over sensitive.
Fwiw ive had a medical abortion and there were FIVE pessaries i had to insert. Not sure where on his penis he might be hiding all those.
:-(

I have reported this post.

Having a degree in a relevant field, I can confirm this is BS.

So she is denying her daughter her father because she believes that he made her miscarry.

Tbh is he was so determined to induce a miscarriage there are drugs he could have spiked her drink with that would require a hell of a lot less effort to get hold of and wouldn't have the uncertainty and sneaking around that you believe.

I also think that it sounds like she miscarried before but just showed no symptoms, ime progesterone levels take a while to drop back down to normal (not zero) not a matter of a few hours.

Im with Jolly. My first thought was, no way does it drop to zero just like that.

I do agree to the decleration of Bullshit.

Anyone thanks. I need info.

Woo Hoo, first time I've ever had a post deleted!! I have arrived!

This sounds a right load of old cock. Mind you, it's not impossible that the bloke could have had the intention to do something like that, just not very plausible that it would have worked.

Shipwrecked do you know about this medically? I just know, sadly from my own experience, that it is administered approximately in this way.

His sister is a nurse, but not in any senior position. Just an ordinary nurse. Surely these drugs would be rigorously controlled?

This is total bollocks balderdash. If anything, Mifepristone will increase progesterone levels in the 1st few hours because it stops progesterone getting taken up by receptors (so there is more sloshing around in the blood). Progesterone levels will eventually fall after a miscarriage but never to zero, just to pre-pregnancy levels.

It takes a while for progesterone levels to drop to zero, more than one day after the start of a mc.

I declare this story to be bollocks.
