I Took the Abortion Pill. Can I Still Carry Out My Pregnancy?
You might have found out you were pregnant during an unexpected or complicated time in your life. Fear and worry about how you would do this may have led you to take the first of two abortion pills, but after doing so, you are experiencing feelings of doubt and regret.
First, know it is okay to change your mind, and what you are feeling is not uncommon. It may not be too late to carry out your pregnancy. Abortion Pill Reversal is a possibility.
How Does the Abortion Pill Work?
The abortion pill method can be used within 70 days (10 weeks) or less of pregnancy and consists of two FDA-approved drugs: mifepristone and misoprostol.
Mifepristone is the first pill taken and works by blocking progesterone, a hormone crucial to sustaining your pregnancy. Without progesterone, a pregnancy cannot continue.
The second pill in the procedure is misoprostol, which is taken 24-48 hours later to cause cramping and bleeding to expel the pregnancy vaginally. There is a possibility of infection after taking the abortion pill. If you are experiencing symptoms like fever, abdominal pain, and prolonged bleeding, please seek medical attention immediately.
Do not take misoprostol (the second pill) if you want to attempt to save your pregnancy.
Discover Hope Through Abortion Pill Reversal (APR)
Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) is a method that attempts to save the pregnancy by flooding the body with progesterone, the crucial pregnancy hormone the first abortion pill blocks. Studies have shown that women who take progesterone after the abortion pill have a 64-68% chance of continuing the pregnancy.
With APR, time is of the essence. The goal is to start the APR process within 24 hours of taking the abortion pill. The earlier the better. However, treatment can be started up to 72 hours after taking the first abortion pill.
Progesterone has been used by doctors for years to aid early pregnancies and help with other female reproductive system issues.
