About the unwanted pregnancy
Hello Doctor, I need a consultation regarding an unwanted pregnancy. My last proper period started on 30 August, and I had unprotected intercourse afterward. I would like to know whether I am pregnant and, if the pregnancy is confirmed, what safe options are available for medical abortion.
Could you please guide me through the required tests, consultation, and procedure? I also want to know whether abortion medication is suitable for me and how it should be taken under medical supervision.

A urine pregnancy test after a missed period is the first step to confirm this. If it's positive, an ultrasound will help date the pregnancy accurately. Medical termination is legal and safe in India within the permitted gestational limits, but the right option depends on how many weeks along you are.
Next Steps
Please book an in-person gynaecology consultation as soon as possible so the pregnancy can be dated and your options explained clearly. Don't take any medication for this without a doctor supervising you directly.
Health Tips
Self-medicating for termination without medical supervision can be unsafe. It can also leave the pregnancy incomplete, needing further treatment.
