Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I can understand your concerns.
There are two method of abortion one is through pills called abortion pills( medical abortion) another is surgical method called D&C( dilatation and currettage).
Medical abortion can be used up to 49 days of pregnancy and can be used in your case but under supervision of an expert or a doctor because it may cause severe bleeding, infection and incomplete abortion.
Before going for an abortion you should go for an ultrasound scan to see the exact weeks and site( to rule out ectopic pregnancy) of pregnancy.
So for termination of pregnancy you should consult a Gynecologist and get your ultrasound scan done and took medicine under her supervision.
Hope found useful, feel free to discuss more information.
Good luck.
