Answer
You should follow-up with blood tests and/or an ultrasound to determine if the Cytotec worked. You could also try to take a home pregnancy test, but it could still be showing a positive results if the pregnancy hormone hasn't completely left your system.

If the Cytotec was unsuccessful, you do need to complete the abortion either by taking more of the Cytotec or by having an aspiration abortion. It is not recommended to take Cytotec without consulting a medical professional for an exam, so I would recommend seeing a doctor before taking any additional medications.
