Brief Answer:
Abortion pills should be taken under supervision.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing to us.

There are two methods of abortion one is through abortion pills another one is surgical that is called D&C( dilatation and curattage).

In your case I think abortion pills are effective because it can be taken for up to 49 days of pregnancy.

Abortion pills should always be consumed under supervision of an expert or doctor because sometimes it may cause severe bleeding, infection and retained product of conception.

Before going for abortion, you should go for a pelvic ultrasound to determine the exact size and site (whether it is intrauterine or extrauterine) of pregnancy.

Hence you should consult your treating doctor for the same.

Hope I have answered your query if you have further questions I will be happy to assist you.

Good luck.
Regards
Dr.Richa
