Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Mifepristone aof 200 mg with in first 70 days of gestation is aborting and some times it takes longer to kick in. It is always used under supervision. Usually misoprostol is combined with it. Now that you have taken one dose, you have initiated the process. I would like you to consult a doctor and let them see if they have a solution for that. You need a lot of progestins , which are necessary in pregnancy and mifepristone yout ook will start trying to make these hormones stop working by antagonising their action. and the doctor is going to make sure that there are enough progesterones around to fight.
Seek an ObGyn help and let them decide what is best for you. I hope it helps. Take good care fo yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
