Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. If the bleeding has started after the intake of misoprostol, it means that the medicines are effective in starting the process of abortion.
There is no need to take any further dosage of misoprostol, as the blood flow will gradually increase with time.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
