I had a medical abortion a few days ago. I took mifepristone and misoprostol as instructed, but I haven't had any stomach cramps and only noticed slight bleeding for 45 hours. I've been feeling nauseous and even vomited a couple of times, but not right after taking the tabletit was about 3 hours later. The kit I used had 1 mifepristone, which I took two days before, and 4 misoprostol tablets that I took two each with a 78-hour gap in between. I'm really worriedis the abortion successful? If it isn't, what should I do? Is it okay to repeat the process?

To confirm if the abortion was successful, you should follow up with a healthcare provider for an ultrasound examination. If the abortion was not successful, your healthcare provider may recommend a surgical procedure to complete the abortion. It is not safe to repeat the medical abortion process without consulting a healthcare provider. It is important to seek medical advice to ensure your safety and well-being.

I found lumps in both breasts during a sonography the right one is 5.2 x 2.5 cm and the left is smaller. I'm unmarried but sexually active sometimes, and there's no family history of breast cancer. Should I be worried? Do I need surgery or can medication help shrink them?

It's understandable to be concerned about breast lumps, but many are benign and don't require treatment. Your situation, with lumps found on sonography, warrants a medical evaluation to determine their nature and appropriate management. While a larger lump in one breast and a smaller one in the other might raise some flags, it's not necessarily a cause for immediate panic.
