Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pills you have taken are effective for abortion of less than 7 weeks gestation. To know whether the abortion is complete, you will have to get an ultrasound scan done after the cramps and bleeding stop completely.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
