Home remedy cannot terminate pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

7 weeks pregnancy is quite advanced and there is no way to terminate this naturally with home remedies.Papaya wont help at this stage.

You need to terminate this by medicines only.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
