Some women feel abortion is their only option when faced with an unplanned pregnancy. Out of fear, pressure from others, or a lack of support, they choose to terminate the pregnancy. However, hearing about women who wish they could have changed their minds is common. 

Whatever your reason, if you’re having a change of heart after taking the first drug in the abortion pill method, you may still have a chance to save your pregnancy. Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) is a possibility. 

How the Abortion Pill Method Works

You take two powerful drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol, to terminate a pregnancy with the abortion pill method. The FDA highly regulates the first drug, mifepristone. Only certified providers can prescribe it, and the FDA approves its use through 70 days or less of pregnancy. 

Mifepristone blocks the hormone progesterone, causing the lining of the uterus to thin. A pregnancy cannot survive without progesterone.

Misoprostol is the second drug in the procedure. It expels the pregnancy through the vagina by triggering uterine contractions, cramping, and vaginal bleeding. 

The Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) Process

Doctors have used progesterone safely for years to treat various female health issues. Additional progesterone makes all the difference for a pregnancy, menopause, treating PMS symptoms, and restarting a woman’s menstrual cycle.

Since mifepristone, the first pill in the abortion pill process, blocks progesterone, adding additional progesterone is vital. Abortion Pill Reversal floods the body with progesterone to help the pregnancy survive.

Studies have shown that adding progesterone to a woman’s system after taking the first drug, mifepristone, saves a pregnancy 64 – 68% of the time.

Do not take the second drug, misoprostol, if you want to attempt to save your pregnancy.

When to Begin Abortion Pill Reversal

Timing is critical. If possible, APR should begin within 24 to 72 hours after taking mifepristone. The sooner you’re able to start reversing the effects of this abortion drug, the greater the chance of success.
