Success rate is very high for mifepristone 200mg with misoprostol 800microgram after 36hrs.
Sine the regimen followed by you is not very effective , i recommend you to get a ultrasonography done to rule out retained products of conception.
On transvaginal ultrasound if retained production is more than 15mm, you need surgical curettage.
If less than 15mm ,then medications will suffice. Contact your Gynecologist for prescription.
Hello,
In general, medical abortion can be done max 7-9wk of gestation completely. But sometimes, medical abortion fail to evacuate uterus and there remains product of conception.
Here, you need to consult with your gynecologist if products are not expelled out within 3-5 days or abdominal cramp/ bleeding starts. In this context, check for retained bits via TVS scan and proceed to surgical abortion by the means of D & C to evacuate uterus completely.
Practice safe sex in future by using safe period/OCP/Em pill/other methods to prevent unwanted pregnancy.
Be well & take care.
