Hello, I would be happy to help you with your question.

At this early in pregnancy, the amount of bleeding that she would experience will be very light. BUT, it is not always successful, and given the possible lack of response to the medication, it is time to take her in for a blood HCG level and possibly an ultrasound. It is possible that she is off on the dating of the pregnancy or that the pregnancy is not in the uterus - called an ectopic pregnancy.

I hope that this helps. If you have more questions, please click on "ASK ME A QUESTION" link above to directly ask me a question!
