Hello,

Medical abortion procedure has several risk and complication like excessive bleeding, cramp, vomiting, fainting etc.

Herein, you must consult with gynecologist or healthcare provider for safe termination. Nature of pregnancy (tubal or uterine) should be confirmed.

It will be helpful for proper dosing, direction of UNWANTED KIT and other medication, also in emergency purpose.

Painkiller and other supportive medication may be needed. Post pill abortion, one USG scan is also advisable to check for retained bits (if any).

Good luck.

Hello
Thanks for your query.
Do not take ANY medication for medical abortion without consulting a gynecologist.
Medical abortion does work and is ideal for 5 weeks pregnancy.
but first the pregnancy must be confirmed and accurately dated by a doctor.
Then pills in proper dosage with understanding must be taken.
A follow up visit is a must to confirm that the abortion was complete
Without following these precautions, there are risks such as infection, severe bleeding, incomplete abortion , undiagnosed ectopic pregnancy etc.
Take care.
