Can You Reverse the Effects of the Abortion Pill?

Did you take the first drug in the abortion pill series (mifepristone) and regret your decision? If so, there’s still a chance to reverse the mifepristone’s effects through Abortion Pill Reversal—but time is of the essence!

This article will walk you through Abortion Pill Reversal works and where you can go to find it. However, if you’re looking for immediate assistance, contact Liberty Women’s Clinic today to speak with one of our caring team members. We’re here to help point you in the right direction.

What Is Abortion Pill Reversal?

The abortion pill is a combination of two different drugs.

Mifepristone is taken first. It works by blocking a hormone called progesterone. This hormone is essential for maintaining your pregnancy. Without progesterone, the uterine lining thins, causing your pregnancy to detach and end.

Misoprostol is taken next, and it causes uterine contractions that expel the pregnancy from the uterus and out through the vagina.

Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) delivers progesterone to the pregnancy with the intended purpose of counteracting the effects of mifepristone.

Is Abortion Pill Reversal Effective and Safe?

Abortion Pill Reversal has been used safely in pregnancy for over 50 years.

APR is most effective if started within 24-72 hours after taking mifepristone (it will not work if you’ve already taken misoprostol). This means that the sooner you take APR, the greater the likelihood of success.

Where Can I Receive Abortion Pill Reversal?
