AnswerHello, neha,
You are really asking for trouble taking misoprost. It is for stomach ulcers, and according to the manufacturer, should NEVER be given to a pregnant woman. It can cause a woman's death in hours. Please don't do that anymore! The person who gave you those pills committed malpractice, in my opinion.
Please go to a decent doctor. As much as you don't want to be pregnant, there are worse things, like serious injury or death. You need to go to a doctor and find out what is going on with you. I can't tell you over the internet, and neither can anyone else, including a doctor.
If you are still pregnant, you can find help, people who will help you with the problems you face, whatever they may be. They won't hurt you. Please go here:

Look under India. There are not many centers, and if there isn't one near you, please contact one of these and ask them to help you find some help where you live.
Of course your parents will be upset, but in my experience, most of the time, they will be very supportive. And I have been in exactly the position your parents would be in. Of our eight grandchildren, one was born to our unmarried son. He is a precious little boy, three years old, and I wouldn't trade his life for anything! I am so grateful to his mother for protecting him! I told her so!
Yes, the culture there is more difficult for you. But that doesn't mean your parents won't be supportive. Nearly all parents fall in love with their grandchild when they first meet.
Please take care of yourself and your baby. Don't risk your life anymore. I will pray for you.
