Abortion Pill Reversal

If you’ve taken mifepristone, the first drug in the abortion pill regimen, and regret your decision, you might wonder if anything can be done to continue the pregnancy.

Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) may potentially counteract the effects of mifepristone, allowing the pregnancy to continue. Timing is crucial, so if you’re having second thoughts after taking mifepristone, it may not be too late to act. Please call the Abortion Pill Reversal Hotline at 877-558-0333 for immediate assistance.

How APR Works

To understand how APR works, it’s important to know how the abortion pill ends a pregnancy. The first drug, mifepristone, blocks the hormone progesterone, which is essential for the pregnancy’s growth and development. Without progesterone, the pregnancy detaches from the uterine lining and ends.

The second drug, misoprostol, causes the uterus to contract, expelling the pregnancy from the body.

APR involves administering doses of progesterone through oral, vaginal, or intramuscular methods to outcompete the effects of mifepristone. APR is most effective if started within 24-48 hours of taking mifepristone, although it may still work if started later.

What are the Chances?

Progesterone has been used for decades to support pregnancies and reduce the risk of miscarriage, among other purposes. There have been no reported complications for patients undergoing APR treatment, and there is no evidence of an increased risk of birth defects beyond the general population.

In fact, APR has proven successful in many cases. One study showed that the protocol allowed women to continue their pregnancy in 64% of cases when progesterone was administered intramuscularly and 68% of cases when taken orally.

There is hope. Even if it’s been more than 24-48 hours since you took mifepristone, speaking to a qualified provider about APR can help determine if this treatment is still an option for you, and, if so, get you started immediately.
