Doctors' responses

since your period is 42 days late and you had two positive home pregnancy tests on different days, pregnancy is very likely. Home pregnancy tests are usually very accurate, and two positives are rarely wrong, even if ejaculation did not happen inside (pregnancy can still occur from pre-ejaculate fluid).

The next step is to confirm with a blood beta-hCG test and/or an ultrasound at a clinic as soon as possible. If you do not wish to continue the pregnancy, early medical abortion (abortion pills) is generally safe and effective in early pregnancy, but it should be taken only under medical supervision. The usual regimen involves mifepristone followed by misoprostol, and a doctor will guide you on the correct dose, timing, and check for complications.

Hello doctor. I understand your advice about visiting a clinic, but unfortunately I am not able to visit in person due to personal and family reasons. My last period was on (date). I have no severe one-sided pain, no fainting, and no heavy bleeding. I am approximately 5–6 weeks pregnant. If medical abortion is possible in my case, please guide me on the safest option, necessary precautions, and warning signs to watch for. I understand the risks and will seek emergency care if needed. Thank you for your guidance.

If your home pregnancy test was positive twice after 42 days without periods, it most likely means you are pregnant — but this should be confirmed with a doctor or clinic before taking any medicines. Do not take abortion pills on your own, especially since you are under 18, because the dose, timing, and safety check (pregnancy location, weeks, health status) must be assessed by a qualified doctor. Please speak urgently with a gynecologist, trusted healthcare provider, or visit a nearby hospital/clinic for confirmation, counseling about your options, and safe medical care.

Hello, mai aapki pareshani samajh sakta hoon. Aapne jaisa samjhaya uske hisab se aap 100% pregnant hai. Ab next step hai ki ek sonography karwaiye - Ultrasonic for pregnancy details. Iske baad agar aap ye pregnency rakhna nahi chahti hai, to physically jakar ek Gynecologist ya Family Medicine Specialist se consult karein.

Directly online salah se abortion pills naa lein, iss se faayda kam aur nuksaan zyada hone ki sambhavna hai.

Feel free to reach out again.

Regards, Dr. Nirav Jain MBBS, D.Fam.Medicine

Hello

If two home pregnancy tests on different days are positive, you are very likely pregnant, especially with 42 days missed period and symptoms like vomiting and fatigue.

Withdrawal (no ejaculation inside) is not fully reliable, so pregnancy can still happen.

Since you do not want to continue the pregnancy:

First, confirm with a doctor visit and ultrasound to check how many weeks and rule out ectopic pregnancy.

If it is an early pregnancy (usually up to 9 weeks), medical abortion pills (Mifepristone + Misoprostol) are commonly used.

Do not take pills without medical guidance, especially at 18 and without confirming gestational age.

⚠️ Seek urgent care if severe abdominal pain (one-sided), dizziness, or very heavy bleeding.

Please see a gynecologist as soon as possible for safe and legal options in your area.

I trust this helps Thank you Take care

Anum 💛

Main samajh rahi hoon tum kitni tension me ho. Lekin main yahan se dose ya exact tareeqa nahi de sakti. Abortion pills sahi patient, sahi weeks aur sahi situation me hi safe hoti hain. Bina ultrasound ke ek risk hota hai — especially ectopic pregnancy ka — jo dangerous ho sakta hai.

Lekin main tumhe yeh zaroor help kar sakti hoon ke doctor ko kaise clearly reply likhna hai 👇

Hello

This is a sensitive medical issue that requires a doctor’s supervision for your safety and well-being.

The safest and most appropriate step is to consult a gynecologist or a healthcare professional as soon as possible

Still if you are asking safest option , its the abortion pills

Dont take pills if you are 10 weeks pregnant or more

Emergency if:

2+ pads/hour for 2 hours Severe one-sided pain, fainting Fever >38°C for more than 24 hrs No bleeding within 24 hrs after misoprostol

Thank you

Hello Aapki situation ko samajh raha hoon—42 din se periods late hain, 2 baar home pregnancy test kiya aur dono baar positive aaya hai. Iska matlab hai ki aap bahut zyada sambhavit taur par pregnant hain. Home pregnancy test reliable hota hai, especially jab repeat karke positive aaye.

Lekin, main aapko abortion pills ya kisi bhi medication ke baare mein advice nahi de sakta.
Ye ek sensitive medical issue hai, aur aapki safety ke liye zaroori hai ki aap gynecologist ya doctor se milen. Doctor pregnancy confirm karenge (blood test ya ultrasound se) aur aapko safe options aur precautions batayenge.

Thank you

Hello Since you are about 5–6 weeks pregnant and have no severe pain, no heavy bleeding, and no fainting, a medical abortion is generally considered effective and safe in early pregnancy for most people. However, I need to say clearly: the safest option is always to have medical supervision

Option 1 (Most effective):

Mifepristone 200 mg (one tablet) Followed by Misoprostol 800 mcg (4 tablets of 200 mcg each) 24–48 hours later

Misoprostol can be taken:

Under the tongue (sublingual – hold 30 minutes, then swallow remnants), or

Between cheek and gum (buccal – hold 30 minutes), or

Vaginally (insert high into vagina)

At 5–6 weeks, this usually works very well

Option 2 (If mifepristone is not available):

Misoprostol only

800 mcg (4 tablets of 200 mcg)

Repeat every 3 hours

Up to 3 doses total if needed

This works slightly less effectively than the combined method but is still safe

What to Expect

After misoprostol:

Cramping (can be strong)

Bleeding (often heavier than a period)

Clots and tissue passing

Nausea, diarrhea, feverish feeling, chills (common for 24 hours)

At 5–6 weeks, you may see:

Small clots

A small sac-like tissue (may not be clearly identifiable)

Bleeding usually starts within a few hours after misoprostol.

Normal vs Warning Signs Normal:

Heavy bleeding with clots

Strong cramps

Fever/chills for less than 24 hours after misoprostol

SEEK EMERGENCY CARE if:

Soaking 2 or more large pads per hour for 2 consecutive hours

Severe abdominal pain not relieved by pain medicine

Fainting or severe dizziness

Fever ≥ 38°C lasting more than 24 hours after misoprostol

Foul-smelling vaginal discharge

No bleeding at all within 24 hours of misoprostol

How to Confirm It Worked

After 3–4 weeks:

Take a pregnancy test (it may still be faintly positive earlier) OR

If possible, get an ultrasound

Signs it likely worked:

Heavy bleeding and clots

Pregnancy symptoms decrease (breast tenderness, nausea improve)

Important Emotional Note

Hormonal shifts can cause mood changes for a few days. That is normal. Try to rest and have someone nearby if possible.

First, an important safety note: Before taking abortion pills, it’s safest to confirm:

You are less than 10 weeks pregnant

You do not have symptoms of ectopic pregnancy (severe one-sided pain, shoulder pain, dizziness/fainting)

You do not have an IUD in place

You are not allergic to the medications

You do not have a bleeding disorder or take blood thinners

Thank you

A positive result on a home pregnancy test likely indicates that you are pregnant, considering both tests showed positive. However, before considering taking any abortion pills, it’s crucial to confirm the pregnancy with a healthcare professional and ensure it is intrauterine (inside the uterus) and not ectopic (outside the uterus), which could be life-threatening. If confirmed and you are considering an abortion, it’s important to consider your options and talk with a healthcare provider who can discuss how abortion pills work, the process involved, and any potential risks or side effects. Specifically, the regimen for a medical abortion usually involves two medications, mifepristone and misoprostol, which have specific usage guidelines and should only be used under medical supervision to ensure safety and efficacy. Timing is also crucial; medical abortion is usually only recommended within the first 10 weeks of pregnancy. You should also discuss your general health, any existing medical conditions, and your overall circumstances to ensure it’s the right choice for you. Additionally, emotional support and counseling services can be beneficial. Please schedule an appointment with a gynecologist or a healthcare provider who can give you personalized advice based on your health and needs. If you’re experiencing severe pain, irregular bleeding, or any other concerning symptoms, you should seek medical attention immediately.
