Hello dear
Understand your concern
Medical abortion pill can cause pain and bleeding due to uterine contraction.
Pain is mild to moderate depending upon age of pregnancy and nature of pregnancy.
But if pain is severe and remain for more than 7 days after using pills.
There may be possibility of ectopic pregnancy and incomplete abortion.
Other side effects like gastrointestinal disturbance, back pain, chills and excessive bleeding may occur.

So please consult the gynecologist for exclude the Ectopic pregnancy and incomplete abortion by USG.
Take tablet meftal spas, proper rest and healthy diet.

Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
