Brief Answer:
Self medication is not advisable

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing..
I understand your concern..

Please donot use these medications on your own.. It has serious side effects which requires monitoring of a gynaecologist..

I think you have an incomplete abortion. Expired tablet will have furthur reduced efficacy. Normally heavy bleeding will be there only on the day of intake of 2nd pill. Minimal bleeding will last for a week. So get a scan done to see for retained products of conception. Depending on the amount of retained products, repeated medication or D and C will be advised by your doctor..

Since you are feeling week, get an Hb done to detect anemia. Iron tablet may be required to build up Hb.

Hope I have answered your query.. Feel free to ask any doubts.. Good day..

hi Dr. Thanks for your quick revert, but just want to add that when I had inserted 4 pills in my vagina, the same night the sack dropped while I was urinating. So I am sure that the abortion has happened successfully but I am still bleeding. Please advice what the next course of action. Thanks.

Brief Answer:
Ultrasound scan of pelvis need to be done

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing..

In my opinion you have had an incomplete abortion. It means the sac might have gone but there is still some retained products of conception.

So get a repeat scan to see for retained products. If it is present, either a repeat tablet has to be inserted or a D and C has to be done depending on your doctor's opinion.

Hope I have answered your query. If no doubts, kindly close the conversation and rate my answer. Good day..
