AnswerHi, anum,
Cytotec probably won't produce an abortion, if nothing has happened so far. If it will produce abortion, then it will just happen, but it may not. Fortunately, it is unlikely there will be any serious problems as a result of you having taken it. But you should stop harming yourself. The manufacturer of Cytotec says it is not to be used during pregnancy, because there are several ways it can kill a woman, and sometimes it only takes a few hours. The Diclofenac is unlikely to have any effect on pregnancy at this point, according to what I have been able to find. If you continue to abuse your body with dangerous drugs, you could cause serious harm. It's not worth the risk.
I don't know what you are facing that causes you to want to have an abortion. But if you are getting any kind of pressure, either from the father, your family, or from your culture, please find a way to go someplace where you will be safe. You shouldn't have to take these kinds of risks. You deserve better.
You may need some further help. The chances of finding an organization specifically for pregnant women, that can help, in Pakistan, are remote. However, you can probably get some help from a local Catholic church or Catholic hospital. If one church won't help, another might. It seems like your best chance. To find one near you, please go here:

You may also be able to find another church or a Lutheran church that may help:

From what I know of the situation, you won't find this situation easy, but it is possible to get help. Please know that the people I'm recommending, for the most part, will simply try to help you, and not pressure you in any way.
Please take care of yourself, and let me know how you do. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
