Have you told them you are unsure of your dates? I'm surprised they're sending the pills out if so.

Over 10 weeks the pill can still work, but is given in hospital/clinic due to increased risk of complications. You should tell them you aren't sure, you shouldn't take it at home by yourself if you might be further along.

Are you in the u.k ? Maybe you can ask In the pregnancy choices board as someone may be able to help.

If you are unsure of dates you really should have a scan first before taking those pills. You could ask for this to be moved to pregnancy choices.
