Panic can set in when you discover an unplanned pregnancy. Stress, confusion, and fear can take over and cause you to respond with a knee-jerk reaction. Maybe you panicked and immediately chose to have a medical abortion (the abortion pill).
If you’ve taken the first drug (mifepristone) of the abortion pill method and are now rethinking your decision, there may still be time to save your pregnancy. Call the Abortion Pill Reversal hotline immediately to begin the reversal process.
What is Abortion Pill Reversal (APR)?
Progesterone is a necessary hormone for maintaining a growing pregnancy. Mifepristone, the first drug in the abortion pill method, blocks progesterone. As a result, the fertilized egg can no longer stay implanted.
To reverse the effects of the first abortion drug, APR floods progesterone into a woman’s system. Healthcare providers have safely used progesterone for women with menstrual cycle irregularities, infertility issues, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
Is APR Effective?
Many women report successful pregnancies after effective abortion pill reversal treatment. Statistically, 64 – 68% of pregnancies proceed to term after women choose the reversal protocol. The sooner you start treatment, the higher the possibility of continuing your pregnancy.
It’s best to start the reversal treatment within the first 24 hours of taking mifepristone. However, there have been successful reversals when treatment begins within 72 hours of taking the first drug, so it may not be too late.
Because every procedure comes with side effects, discussing your unique situation and pregnancy with medical professionals is essential.
