Abortion pills can only be taken under supervision.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I can understand your concerns.
Mifepristone and mesoprostol ( abortion pills should only be taken under supervision of a doctor or an expert because sometimes it may cause severe bleeding, infection and incomplete abortion.
The mesoprostol usually taken 24-48 hrs.after taking mifepristone, so in that case your timing are not appropriate.
So now wait and watch for bleeding for 6-8 hrs.
Hope found useful, feel free to ask more questions.
Good luck.
