Pharmacological Inhibition of Lactation After 16 to 20 Week Abortion
Sponsor: Northwestern University
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare breast symptoms (lactation, engorgement, etc) of individuals who undergo a procedure for second trimester of pregnancy loss between 16 weeks and 20 weeks gestational age. The participants will be randomly placed in two groups, one with a placebo tablet and one with medication called "cabergoline" which are taken immediately after their procedure. Researchers will compare groups to see if there are any significant differences in breast symptoms.
