How To Terminate Unwanted Pregnancy?
Question: I had sex with my boyfriend on 28th October 2015 and last menstrual period 3rd october.Kit test done today found positive.I dont want this child please help.
Brief Answer:
visit a gynecologist
Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
Firstly I would like to suggest you that it is not safe to take the MTP pill yourself without consulting a gynecologist.
At most places it is not an over the counter drug and is available only on prescription but if you already have prescription and procured the kit then it has a specific pattern of intake
Kit consists of one large tablet to be taken at once and then after 48 hours of that take the rest of the tablets In kit which are four in number.
After taking full kit, abortion occurs anytime between 6 hours to 5 days.
But in few patients there can be an incomplete abortion or excessive bleeding per vaginum and in that case you have to visit a gynecologist.
I hope I have answered your question but in case you have other questions I will be happy to help.

Brief Answer:
ultrasound after 15 days
Detailed Answer:
Hello, it will test positive for 3-6 weeks more.
If you have stopped bleeding then there is nothing to worry.
In my practice I get transvaginal ultrasound after 15 days of misoprostol intake which will tell us the completion of abortion procedure.
All the best.

What if the ultrasound shows that the abortion is incomplete?
What are the complications that might arise in this case? i often feel weak and tired these days.

Brief Answer:
surgical evacuation required
Detailed Answer:
Feeling weak and tired is common because it is due to withdrawal of hormones.
In case the abortion is incomplete then surgical evacuation will be needed but most probably it is a complete abortion if there is no further bleeding.
Even if (by bad luck) surgical evacuation ud required then also nothing to worry as it is a simple procedure and is usually safe in the hands of an experienced gynecologist.
Take care.
