Question : Hello doctor,

I am 21 yes old girl, I got pregnant since 40 days and 10-15 days ago I used 5 tablet of abort kit and after 1 week when I tested pregnancy it was positive.

One of my friend suggest me to take MISOTROST 200mg 4 tab in 2 days (each 1 in morning Nd evening). Will this able to clear my pregnancy or not or what I need to do?

Thanks in advanced.

Brief Answer:
Consult a gynecologist urgently

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
First of all please consult a gynecologist.
Get an ultrasound scan done to know how many weeks pregnant you are.
Then take pills as directed by the doctor.
Performing medical abortion on your own is illegal and life threatening.
All the best
Please feel free to discuss further
