  5. I've missed my period and found out I'm 5 weeks pregnant, even though we used protection. I'm not in a position to raise a baby right now. A friend with an MBBS degree advised me to confirm the pregnancy with a scan and then take mifepristone orally, followed by 4 misoprostol tablets vaginally after 24 hours. But I haven't experienced any bleeding yet. After another 24 hours, I took 2 more misoprostol vaginally and 2 orally. Still, there's no bleeding, just some tissue passing and a few drops of a dirty white liquid. Can you help me understand what's happening?

Sounds like you are experiencing a medical abortion using medication. It is important to follow the correct dosage and administration guidelines for these medications. In your case, since there has been limited bleeding and only some tissue passing, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly to ensure the completion of the abortion process and to address any potential complications.
