Is it okay to take a miscarriage pill if you are not pregnant?

Patient's question:

I didn't get pregnant and took the medication for medical abortion. I took Mifepristone. I don't know if taking Mifepristone will cause significant interference to my body. I thought Mifepristone was a birth control pill, but it turned out to be a medication for medical abortion.

Doctor's answer:

Mifepristone can be used for medication abortion or for birth control. If you are not pregnant and take mifepristone, it may affect your irregular menstruation. Mifepristone is a hormone-based medication with relatively significant side effects. It is recommended to avoid taking medication casually when there are no abnormalities. Afterward, carefully observe whether your menstruation will show any abnormal signs.
