Brief Answer:
Do a urine pregnancy test first.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The missing periods that you have can be due to pregnancy or due to a hormonal disturbance. These can be related to stress and anxiety also.
misoprost and mifepristone is used to induce abortion of less than 7 weeks pregnancy.
You first need to confirm the pregnancy by doing a urine for pregnancy test. In case the test comes positive then the duration of pregnancy needs to be confirmed after an ultrasound scan. Taking misoprost tablet like this without knowing the proper cause of delay in your periods can be dangerous. Please do not self medicate yourself.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
