Official title
Cabergoline for Lactation Inhibition After Early Second-Trimester Abortion or Pregnancy Loss: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Breast pain following second-trimester abortion is common. Breast engorgement and milk leakage following second-trimester perinatal loss and abortion can cause both physical pain and emotional distress. Dopamine agonists have previously been shown to be effective in lactation inhibition for third-trimester fetal/neonatal loss or contraindications to breastfeeding. The investigator's prior work demonstrated that compared to placebo, a single dose of cabergoline was effective in preventing breast symptoms after abortion or loss 18-28 weeks. As lactogenesis starts as early as 16 weeks gestation, the investigators hope to determine the efficacy of cabergoline earlier in the second trimester,16-20 weeks.
