Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have missed my period for the past four days, and I am concerned about the possibility of being pregnant. I took a home pregnancy test, and the results showed one dark line and another faint line. I already have a 10-month-old baby, and I am not ready to conceive again so soon. Please advise me on whether taking abortion pills at home would be a good decision at this stage, or if there are other options you can suggest.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have read your query and understood your concern. Based on the information you provided, the test result is weakly positive, which makes it unreliable. I suggest you repeat the test after one week using an early morning urine sample or undergoing a blood Beta-hCG test for confirmation. If the pregnancy is confirmed and ectopic pregnancy is ruled out, it is possible to safely terminate the pregnancy at home. I suggest you consult a gynecologist for further assistance. Try not to stress as every problem has a solution. Take some time to relax and seek appropriate medical advice to address your situation effectively. I hope this has helped you. Kindly follow up if you have more doubts.
Thank you.
