Did you know the abortion pill can sometimes be reversed? If you have taken the abortion pill and now have second thoughts and want to continue your pregnancy, there may still be a chance to reverse the abortion pill’s effects. The protocol is called Abortion Pill Reversal (APR).
Reach out through the official Abortion Pill Reversal website or call the 24/7 Helpline at 1-877-558-0333 to get started.
How Does Abortion Pill Reversal Work?
To understand how Abortion Pill Reversal works, we must start with how the abortion pill ends a pregnancy. The first drug in the abortion pill method, mifepristone, blocks the hormone progesterone, which is essential for maintaining a growing pregnancy. Without progesterone, the lining of the uterus will thin, and the fetus or embryo will no longer remain attached, ending the pregnancy. The effects of mifepristone aren’t immediate, allowing a window of time for Abortion Pill Reversal to work.
The Abortion Pill Reversal works by adding progesterone back into a woman’s body to offset the effects of mifepristone. It’s important to note that progesterone has been used safely in pregnancy for decades.
The Abortion Pill Reversal is typically taken after mifepristone but before misoprostol. Misoprostol will cause the uterus to contract and begin the expulsion process with abdominal cramping and vaginal bleeding, making reversal difficult.
Timing Is Essential
Time is of the essence with Abortion Pill Reversal. The sooner a woman can start the reversal protocol, the better the chance of success. There have been successful reversals within 72 hours of taking the abortion pill. Even if it’s been longer than 72 hours, you can still contact the Helpline to discuss whether or not reversal is still possible. Sometimes, the abortion pill does not work, and pregnancy continues.
