Brief Answer:
Likely failure of medical method
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
No passage of clots and fleshy mass after taking medical abortion is likely the failure of the medicines.
She should get a ultrasound done and if pregnancy is there, she should undergo a surgical abortion.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.

Madam,
At the consumption of first dosage of two misoprostol tablets some fleshy mass did come out, but normally the amount of clotting and bleeding that occurs after its consumption didnot happen.
A pharmacist advised to take the dosage of mifegest kit once again, is it advisable as taking her to the doctor is a bit difficult task.
Kindly suggest..
