AM i going right way?
Doubts:

Brief Answer:
Wait

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I understand you wish to abort.

It is possible that you might start bleeding after 12 hours of taking misoprostol tablets. Continue with your regimen as advised by doctor.

Vaginal route is better.

If you fail to bleed with present medicines no need to vhange brand. Better to go for surgical evacuation by D&C.

hi doctor, i took misoprostol 2 more tabs now i.e after 12 hours of first intake..
2+2 i have divided and took on my own choice by seeing over internet doctors. not suggestion by any doctor here...
i want to know is dosage duration is fine? or doest it change the result? !
After intake of first set of tablets i.e 2 misoprostol .. bleeding is so very normal after 5 hours of intake..just one pad changed for entire day..

and second set i just took now... i am little worried now whether this dosage duration gap is correct or not!?

If bleeding doesn't happen tomorrow as well...can i take 4 more misoprostol tomorrow and any suggestions?

please please clear my doubts
1) i got to know that 800mg i.e 4 misoprostone had to be taken at once.. but i took 2+2 misoprostone with 12 hours gap intake.. is it ok or will it change the result ?

2) If regular periods doesn't come even after 4 misoprostone for next 2 days...what procedure i should follow..and after how many days i should take ultra sound scan ?
p.s: i am not at all inclined to take D&C

There is no more of any more doses of misoprostol.

Your bleeding seems to be fine and abortion seems to be completed.

All the different regimens you have mentioned are not required.

Don't take anymore medicines.
