Hello dear
Understand your concern
Never use abortion pill without guidance of gynecologist as it cause complication and high chance of failure.
You should take gynecologist's prescribed abortion pill. USG should be done before abortion to confirm intrauterine pregnancy of less than 9 week
As you taken misoprostol without guidance and bleeding not occur, it may be due to improper dose and use of it.
By method,
Day 1: 600 mg mifepristone orally
Day 3: 400 ug misoprostol vaginally ()should be put high in vagina), another 400 ug after 4 hour if required
Day 7: follow up
Day 14: USG should be done to confirm completeness process of abortion.
Normally abortion will complete in 3-4 days indicated by stopping of bleeding. Rest,meftal spas, proper pelvic hygiene should be maintained
Hope this may help you
Best regards
