Hello,
It is not only dangerous but also inadvisable to get a medical abortion after 9 weeks of pregnancy because it tends to become incomplete and hence leads to severe bleeding and infection. You should not self-medicate at any stage to induce an abortion. Please see a specialist immediately and under strict aseptic precautions, undergo a surgical evacuation after necessary preliminary investigations like blood profile, urinalysis, pelvic/trans-vaginal sonogram, bleeding and clotting times. Hope this helps.
