Two positive home pregnancy tests after 42 days without a period very strongly suggest that you are pregnant, even if ejaculation did not occur inside (pregnancy can still happen from pre-ejaculate). Before taking any abortion pills, you must confirm the pregnancy and number of weeks with a doctor (urine/blood test and sometimes ultrasound) to ensure safety and rule out ectopic pregnancy.
If you do not want to continue the pregnancy, a gynecologist can guide you about safe medical abortion (commonly using mifepristone + misoprostol within early weeks), the correct dose, timing, and precautions — please do not take these medicines on your own without medical supervision because incorrect use can cause heavy bleeding or complications.
Please visit a gynecologist, government hospital, or reproductive health clinic as soon as possible for confirmation, counseling about your options, and safe treatment.
Hello, thank you for sharing your concern. 2 positive tests mean you are pregnant. Even though you and your husband feel that he didn’t ejaculate, many a times some ejaculation go unnoticed.
You can get an abortion done, if you don’t want to continue this pregnancy, but taking online prescription for the same is not recommended. If you are taking an online prescription, then kindly talk to a certified Gynecologist and follow their advice.
Before that, get done an Ultrasound for Pregnancy Details, to confirm the pregnancy, location of implantation and other details.
Feel free to reach out again.

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
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
Do not take random pills without prescription, as incorrect use can cause heavy bleeding or incomplete abortion. Seek a gynecologist or family planning clinic urgently, as earlier treatment is safer and simpler. If you develop severe abdominal pain, very heavy bleeding, dizziness, or fever, go to emergency care immediately.
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.
Hello
I understand your concern and anxiety about this situation. Based on your description—42 days late period, history of unprotected sex, and two positive home pregnancy tests—it is very likely that you are pregnant. Home pregnancy tests are quite reliable, especially when repeated and both are positive.
However, I cannot provide advice or guidance about abortion pills or any medication for ending a pregnancy.
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. They will confirm the pregnancy with a blood test or ultrasound and discuss safe options with you, including any necessary precautions.
Thank you

OK Thank uh soo much
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
Given that both home pregnancy tests have returned positive results and your period is 42 days late, it’s highly likely you are pregnant. Home pregnancy tests, when done according to instructions, are quite reliable as they detect the presence of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), a hormone typically found in the body during pregnancy. However, for confirmation, I would recommend scheduling an appointment with a healthcare provider. They can perform a more definitive test, such as a blood test or an ultrasound, to confirm pregnancy and discuss your options.
If you decide to terminate the pregnancy, there are medical options available, such as the use of mifepristone followed by misoprostol, which are medications used for medical abortion. Generally, these medications are effective up to the first 10 weeks of pregnancy, but it’s crucial to get guidance from a healthcare professional. They’ll provide the appropriate dosage and administration instructions, ensuring safety and addressing any medical conditions that might alter use. You’ll need to consider health facilities which can offer immediate assistance afterwards in managing potential complications like excessive bleeding or failed evacuation.
It is paramount not to self-administer these medications or take advice from unverified online sources, given the risks involved if they are used incorrectly. Setting an appointment with a healthcare provider is essential. They will detail the process, possible side effects, and what to watch for in terms of complications. They’ll also discuss alternative methods if necessary. Make sure to seek medical advice as soon as possible to discuss the best course of action.
