Brief Answer:
Abortion pills always be taken under supervision.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
First and foremost important thing that abortion pills should always be taken under supervision of a doctor or an expert.
Sometimes it may cause severe bleeding, infection and retained product of conception.
Before taking pills you should go for ultrasonography pelvis to see the exact site and size of pregnancy.
Mifepristone alone is not effective.
You should also take mesoprostol after consulting your doctor to complete abortion.
You should go for repeat ultrasonography after 10 days to see whether abortion is complete or not.
Hope I have answered your query if you have further questions I will be happy to help you.
Good luck.
Regards
Dr. Richa
