Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 19 years old I had unprotected sex a month ago and took an emergency contraceptive pill the next day. However I am 3-4 days late on my periods and I took a pregnancy test 3times showing I m pregnant each time. Please suggest me some termination method
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. Pregnancy test coming positive with delay in periods could be due to emergency contraceptive pill failure. Kindly get your blood tested for beta HCG levels to confirm and get a trans-vaginal ultrasound scan (TVS) done to know how many weeks you are pregnant. In case your pregnancy is confirmed and it is within 12 weeks, you can safely go for abortion by means of pills. You can use the drugs namely Mifepristone and Misoprostol in combination for that. However, kindly get it done after taking proper advise as to how to use these drugs by a Gynecologist and under medical supervision and follow-up. Otherwise, you may land up in complications like uncontrolled bleeding or incomplete abortion. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
