Hi,
You will need an ultrasound first of your pregnancy test is positive. If the scan is normal, then and within 6 weeks,then the medical abortion can be attempted. However,you will not get these medicines in your country without a prescription. You will need to see a doctor for the same. Tab Mifepristone 600mcg followed by tab misprostol 200mcg after 48hrs and repeat 200mcg misoprostol after 24 hrs of the 1st dose. This method isnt fool proof and may or may not be successful. If the abortion isnt successful then surgical intervention will be required. I would suggest seeing a doctor first and these medicines are to be taken under supervision only.

I cannot comment on chinese medicines. Thats beyond the scope of my expertise. Im an allopathic doctor so can only be sure of the allopathic medicines. Be very sure about the chinese medicines before you take them.
