Hello XXXXXXX
Thank you for the details.
It is very likely that you are pregnant since your urine pregnancy test is positive. Now, we have to be sure whether the pregnancy is inside the uterus or not. For this, we must do an ultrasound scan of the uterus to see the location of the foetus.
If you blindly take these abortion medicines without confirming where the pregnancy is, it can be very dangerous.
You already have taken the medicines and the bleeding is minimal. At this stage, I advice you to consult a skilled Gynecologist and get your ultrasound done and then proceed further with misoprotol tablets.
Further management can be decided upon based on the ultrasound report.
Take care
