If you have started the process for medical abortion by taking the first pill (mifepristone) but are not sure you want to complete your abortion, some options may be available to you—but you will need to act quickly.
Contacting the Abortion Pill Reversal hotline at 1-877-558-0333 is the fastest way to find a medical center near you that provides the abortion reversal procedure.
Is There Still Time?
It is possible to reverse the beginning of a medical abortion procedure, but only if you act within a specific time frame.
It is also essential that you do not take the second dose of the abortion pill, as this will complete the abortion.
If you have already taken the second dose, you can still contact the abortion reversal hotline, as your abortion may not have been successful, and you may still be pregnant.
How Does Abortion Reversal Work?
As mentioned above, a medical abortion uses two pills. The first pill, mifepristone, prevents your body from producing the pregnancy hormone known as progesterone. Without progesterone, your uterus cannot support a pregnancy, and the embryo stops growing.
The second pill, misoprostol, causes your uterus to contract and expels the pregnancy from your body.
An abortion reversal works by using medication that can stop the effects of mifepristone on your body. This is done by taking the hormone progesterone, which allows your uterus to once again begin to support the pregnancy.
A doctor’s prescription is required for progesterone, and calling the Abortion Pill Reversal hotline at 1-877-558-0333 will allow you to find the closest medical center that can assist you.
Is it Safe?
While every type of medication carries a chance of side effects, taking progesterone to attempt to reverse an abortion is entirely safe and can be effective.
Some women have experienced side effects while using progesterone. These side effects include:
- Sleepiness
- Lack of energy
- Lightheadedness
- Dizziness
- Gastrointestinal discomfort
- Headaches
