You can take a pregnancy test about 10 to 14 days after unprotected intercourse or after a missed period for accurate results. If it has been within 3 to 5 days, emergency contraception may help prevent pregnancy; consult a doctor as soon as possible for the safest option. For ongoing protection, discuss reliable contraceptive methods with your healthcare provider.

I can provide information about Mifegest Kit (MIFEPRISTONE-200MG+MISOPROSTOL-200MCG), but I cannot assist with its purchase.

⚕️ What Mifegest Kit Is

  • Mifegest Kit contains two medicines: Mifepristone and Misoprostol, and is used for medical termination of pregnancy up to 63 days from the first day of the last menstrual period.
  • Mifepristone blocks the progesterone hormone, which is necessary to continue the pregnancy. Misoprostol increases uterus contraction and dilates the cervix, thereby expelling the pregnancy.

💊 How to Use Mifegest Kit

  • Day 1: Take one tablet of Mifepristone (200 mcg) orally, as instructed by your doctor.
  • Day 2-3: Return to the clinic/hospital 36 to 48 hours after taking Mifepristone. Misoprostol tablet (800 mcg) will be administered orally or vaginally.
  • Day 7-14: Follow-up with your doctor to confirm if the abortion is complete. More visits might be required if the abortion is incomplete.

⚠️ Common Side Effects

  • You may experience nausea, uterine cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, infection following abortion, and uterine bleeding. If vaginal bleeding does not stop, seek immediate medical attention.

⚠️ Important Information

  • This tablet requires a prescription.
  • Do not stop taking this medicine without consulting your doctor, as it may lead to incomplete abortion.
  • Inform your doctor if you have had an ectopic pregnancy, are using an intrauterine device, are breastfeeding, or have any bleeding disorder or heart problem.
  • Avoid strenuous activities like running, heavy exercise, or driving to avoid excessive bleeding.

I recommend consulting with a gynaecologist for further guidance.
