I'm really worried because I'm about 12 weeks into my pregnancy and I feel like I need to consider my options. Is there an abortion pill available in my country's pharmacies that I could get without having to see a doctor? I realize it was a mistake, and I'm looking for advice on what medication might be safe.

For a medical abortion within the first 9 weeks of pregnancy, you can consider taking a combination of Mifepristone and Misoprostol. Mifepristone is usually taken first, followed by Misoprostol 24-48 hours later. Please consult with a healthcare provider for proper guidance on the dosage and administration.
