Brief Answer: DETAILS ARE GIVEN BELOW. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for writing to us. Abortion is the process of termination of pregnancy by the removal or expulsion of a fetus or embryo from the uterus before viability. An abortion can occur spontaneously and it is called a miscarriage, OR, it can be purposely induced by abortion pill (in case of Medical abortion). Surgical method (D & C) can be applied in case of failed medical abortion or gestational age more than 9 weeks. Lastly, I don't find any kind of picture for further comment. Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query. Wish your good health and take care your self. Regards, Dr Soumen

Brief Answer: CONSULT WITH GYNECOLOGIST FOR SAFE TERMINATION. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for writing to us. I have viewed attached image through given link. It shows MEDICAL ABORTION PILL (like MTP kit). Self administration of abortion pill is NOT recommended. One pelvic ultrasound scan is required to determine the nature of conception either uterine or tubal pregnancy, before proceeding the medical abortion. The abortion procedure is associated with several risks and complications like nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramp, excessive vaginal bleeding, fainting etc. You can't control them by yourself at home. Therefore, I suggest to consult with local GYNECOLOGIST or healthcare provider for safe termination. This process can be done at home if you consult once with LOCAL DOCTOR as you have to go for follow up examination after 2 weeks to confirm that abortion process is completed. One pelvic ultrasound scan is required to check retained bits if any. Around 5% women needs D & C or suction (surgical method) to evacuate the uterine cavity. To summarize, you must visit to local GYNECOLOGIST for medical abortion with proper advice on follow up visits and in emergency. Hope, it will be helpful for your information. Kindly, close the discussion, if you don't have any other query. Wish your good health and take care yourself. Regards, Dr Soumen For future query, you can directly approach me through http://doctor.healthcaremagic.com/Funnel?page=askDoctorDirectly&docId=63326
