"RU-486 is chemical abortion and can be done at any stage of pregnancy"

No. It must be used by the eighth week to be effective. First you say a D&C can be used for ectopic pregnancy, now this. WHERE do you get your gynecological information?

I think that because a friend of mine had a wife who had the bleeding and other problems of ectopic pregnancy. That's what the doctor told them. They wanted that child badly. But she had to go in to have a D&C. That's what they told him and her. Then they didn't do it right or didn't do it thoroughly and she had to go back and have it done again to stop the infection. My friend complained that in addition to losing their only child, he got charged twice for it.

Now that I think about it, I think she had a D&E, not a D&C. I'll have to ask him again. I do recall them saying the doctor was saying ectopic and tubal pregnancy. Apparently, her tubes were somewhat twisted, putting her at greater risk and harder to get pregnant.
