Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Let me explain in detail regarding abortion using pills.
Firstly it is very important to consult a gynecologist.
The pregnancy should be confirmed and accurately dated by a doctor - was this done in your case ?
This is important because these pills work only within a certain time limit.
Next the pills should be taken as per prescription and as described by the doctor.
Taking them by yourself without medical supervision is very risky.
You can have dreadful complications such as severe uncontrolled bleeding, undiagnosed abnormal / ectopic ( outside the uterus ) pregnancy, infection, sterility etc.
Then you would have bleeding with cramps / clots / passage of fleshy mass within 24 - 48 hours of taking the pills, and bleeding can continue for upto 2 - 3 weeks.
Generally 1 tablet of Mifepristone is taken, followed by 2 more tablets of Misoprostol and 2 more later on ( totally 5 tablets ).
Mild abdominal pain and cramping is normal.
AFter 15 days of taking the pills, ultrasound scan is a must to check that the process was complete.
These steps are very important.
In your case, please let me know what pills are taken , you have mentioned only 3 , what about the remaining 2 ?
Have you had any bleeding yet ?
Mild pain as I mentioned earlier is normal.
You need to give me more details.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Take care.
