Brief Answer:
Confirmation of intrauterine pregnancy is needed

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the query.
To take tablets for medical abortion:
-You have to undergo examination and ultrasound to confirm the intrauterine pregnancy, to exclude the ectopic pregnancy and to estimate the gestational age.
If you take tablets without confirming intrauterine pregnancy, that can lead to complications.
And also medical abortion is usually successful upto 8 weeks of gestation only.
So, consult near by gynecologist, get examined and go for ultrasound.
Then take tablets with her advice.

Hope I have answered your query. I will be available to answer followup queries. If you are satisfied with the response, please give your review at the end of the discussion.
Take care.

Brief Answer:
After confirming intrauterine pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
As your first doctor told, sometimes ectopic pregnancy means pregnancy in structures other than uterus like fallopian tube is possible.
So if you take tablets to induce abortion without ruling out ectopic pregnancy, that can lead to complications like rupture of tube etc.
Once the intrauterine pregnancy is confirmed, you can go for pills.
Usually in our hospital upto 8 weeks of gestation we will recommend medical abortion. Mtp cipla is generally recommend in our hospital.
After ultrasound you can take the tablets with your doctor's advice.
Take care.
