Brief Answer:
Medical method of abortion advised

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. I presume that by result positive, you mean that the urine pregnancy test is positive.
If it is so and you are not willing to continue this pregnancy, then you can terminate it by medical or surgical method. In your case, medical method (include drugs mifepristone and misoprostol) will be advised as it is an early pregnancy.
The medical method of abortion has to be taken under the supervision of a registered medical practitioner, as it has the risks of excessive bleeding , failed abortion or incomplete abortion, in that case surgical method is resorted too.
I would suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get examined, investigated (ultrasound esp to rule out any ectopic pregnancy) and get appropriate treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.Please do get back for any further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards,
Dr Deepti Verma

Take medical method under medical supervision

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX, thanks for responding. I would again suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist and then take the medical method of abortion under her supervision only.
The bleeding occurs within 15 days of taking the medicines.
The process of abortion is painful process, whether medical or surgical.

Brief Answer:
Please take medical method under supervision

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX thanks for responding. I understand your concern.
In my practice, I advise mifepristone 200 mg orally after meals followed by 800 mg of misoprostol vaginally after 48 hours, after proper informed consent and explaining the risks associated.
Therefore, I would suggest you to consult another doctor and tell your willingness for termination of pregnancy. No one will deny to offer you the required treatment. Medical method of abortion should be taken under the supervision of a registered medical practitioner, this is the fact which I am again emphasizing.
