A medical abortion is only available up to the 9th week. The doctor gives you the pills when you visit since they are on prescription and not available in stores. Attempting abortion without a doctor in the US and many other countries is illegal. It's 4 visits all in all:
#1. You get examined, tests taken and you are presented with your options. The doctor will tell you which procedure would suite you most based on your health and how far along you are. Then there's a waiting period and if you are a minor you will most likely need a notice or consent from a parent unless you get a waiver from court.
#2. The first pills are given, Mifepristone that end the embryos life and therefor the pregnancy.
#3. The second medication, Misoprostol, is given. The cramps can start within 30 minutes so get a ride home. It can go on for about 5-6 hours or longer.
#4. Checkup 2 weeks after to make sure everything is gone or you can get infections.

You mean you had three reminder pills left on the first pack you have started menstruating and you have started your next pack on the first day Is it ok or should I complete the pack before starting?
Hello, It would of been best if you continued with your previous pack of pills, where you had 3 tablets remaining. However this will not effect the protection against pregnancy. But if you've recently started birth control, then I would recommend you use a back-up method of protection for 7 days while continuing to take your BC pills. This is just to give you better protection against pregnancy. Also you must be aware that BC pills only protect you against 98% of pregnancy, so there is still a 2% chance that pregnancy could occur. To prevent pregnancy completely then the only choice you have is to abstain from sex altogether or to take/use birth control & condom in conjunction together, every time you have intercourse.
