Efficacy of estrogen-progestogen therapy for women with vascular retained products of conception following miscarriage or abortion.

Women with vascular RPOC who have no bleeding had significantly higher levels of serum progesterone, indicating that administration of progestogen may have an effect on hemostasis. Endometrial bleeding can be prevented or stopped, and retained tissues can be conservatively expelled by oral administration of EPT, including norethisterone, in women with vascular RPOC.
