I am late for my periods. Been 6 weeks i had sex without protection. If i am pregnant what tablet should i take for termination of pregnancy ? i did take that pill which if taken within 72 hours can help by not getting pregnant . is it possible that didnt work?
Hello dear I understand your concern You have taken emergency contraceptive pill after the sex. If you have taken with in 24 hours of the sex then it is highly effective in preventing the pregnancy. It has around 10-25% failure rate (if taken after 24 hours of sex ) But pill can cause delayed in period by 1-2 week as it cause hormonal imbalance. If your period will delay by more then 2 week then go for urine pregnancy test and or blood HCG to confirm the pregnancy. If you will be pregnant then still you can terminate the intrauterine pregnancy by abortion pill containing MIFEPRISTONE PLUS MISOPROSTOL under the advise of the GYNECOLOGIST. Avoid stress, take healthy diet, maintain proper pelvic hygiene, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise. Hope this may help you
