The last time I saw my menses was on 18th XXXXXXX which lasted for 4 days. I had unprotected sex on 3 and 4th July then 15 July. I missed my period it's 8 days late. I took urine test dis morning and it came out positive. I don't want to go to hospital or visit any doctor. I'm guessing 2 or 3 weeks pregnant. It can't be more than that and I always take morning after pills. postinor2 I don't know what happened now

Brief Answer:
cytotec helps in expulsion

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,thanks for the information.I understand your concern.I will try maximum to help you.
In my opinion as you had last period on 18th july the pregnancy comes upto 5 weeks according to actual calculation.
Anyways the abortion is of two types like medical methods and surgical methods.
The medical methods are possible upto 6-7 weeks.Surgical methods are preferred if more than 7 weeks.
Before going for termination an ultrasound is done to know exactly the number of weeks and status of pregnancy and HB to rule out any anaemia.
Usually the medical methods might be associated with complications like heavy bleeding,incomplete abortion etc.
Medical termination is done by the combination of cytotec and mifepristone.Mifepristone helps in dissolution of conceptus and cytotec helps in expulsion.
So it is highly advised to take the medicine for termination only under doctor supervision.
So I suggest you to consult doctor for further course of action.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Feel free to discuss further.
Best regards...Dr.srilatha
