Will Cytotec Be Helpful To Terminate Pregnancy?

i wish to take cytotec to terminate my 5weeks pregnancy. I already have 2 daughters and i cant go through another as the second girl is about 10months. which will work more efficiently, orally or vaginal? Also it says that the first dosage after 30mins of putting under the tongue, one can swallow. What about the other times? Does it mean after 30mins i spit out? Pls advise. Thank you.

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
You should not use tablets to terminate the pregnancy without doctor's advice.
So, consult gynecologist, get examined and go for ultrasound.
Ultrasound is needed to:
-To estimate the gestational age
-To confirm the intrauterine pregnancy and to rule out the ectopic pregnancy.
Then according to the ultrasound report, you can choose the method of abortion with your doctor's advice.
Upto 8 weeks of pregnancy medical termination with tablets is possible.
But combination of mefipristone and misoprostol and preferred usually.
Take care.
