In some cases, bleeding persists after spontaneous abortion during the first trimester of pregnancy, indicating incomplete expulsion of conception products. The present study aimed to compare the effects of concomitant use of methylergonovine and combined Low Dose (LD) contraceptive pills on prevention of hemorrhage and promotion of complete expulsion of retained pregnancy products. In the present randomized clinical trial, the subjects consisted of 111 women with a complaint of persistent hemorrhage after spontaneous abortion, who had referred to the gynecology clinics of Shiraz University of Medical Sciences. The subjects were randomly divided into 3 groups of 37. Group 1 was required to consume methylergonovine pills for 7 days in conjunction with combined LD contraceptive pills for 21 days, group 2 was given methylergonovine pills alone, and group 3 had to use LD pills alone. The volume of hemorrhage, number of days of hemorrhage and complete expulsion of conception products were evaluated. The data were; however, LD pill resulted in a more significant decrease in the number of days and volume of hemorrhage [P<0.0001]. In addition, in all the three groups, the retained pregnancy products were analyzed using the SPSS statistical software. All the three medication regimens resulted in the expulsion of pregnancy products and a decrease in hemorrhage completely expelled after completion of the course of treatment. In the present study, the combined LD contraceptive pills were more effective in decreasing the number of days hemorrhage persisted and the hemorrhage volume.
