Answer
Angel,
Cytotec does not work and is dangerous at 15 weeks of pregnancy. You will need to get a surgical procedure - they are very safe at 15 weeks. If you decide to end it, it would be best to do it in the next week or two if possible. Where do you live? The best website to find abortion services in your area is gynpages.com. If you live near New York City, I can recommend some places to you.
Good luck and let me know if there is anything more I can do to help.
Doctor Joan
