If you’ve taken the first abortion pill, mifepristone, and want to try to reverse its effects, the Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) process may be able to counteract the mifepristone without any adverse effects on your body.
APR does not pose significant health risks. If you’re considering this option, contact the Abortion Pill Rescue Network for 24/7 support.
How Does it Work?
The abortion pill reversal process uses progesterone to counteract the effects of mifepristone, which blocks this crucial pregnancy hormone. One study has found a 64% reversal rate in patients who received progesterone as part of this treatment, with no increased risk of congenital disabilities or harm to pregnant women.
Progesterone has been safely used to support healthy pregnancies for decades, so the reversal process does not pose any known significant health risks when administered by a medical professional.
Know the Facts
If you haven’t decided what to do about your pregnancy yet, Hope First can provide a safe space to ask questions and get more information. We don’t perform or refer for abortions here, but we offer free services to confirm your pregnancy, such as a pregnancy test or a limited ultrasound.
After a positive pregnancy test, an ultrasound will allow us to determine how far along you are in your pregnancy, confirm the viability of the pregnancy, and identify the location of the embryo/fetus. This information is crucial for making an informed decision about your options.
For example, the abortion pill is only FDA-approved through ten weeks of gestational age, so confirming your pregnancy’s gestational age is crucial to understand all of your options.
Most pregnancies develop in the uterus, but if an ultrasound reveals that the fetus is located outside the uterus, this is an ectopic pregnancy and requires immediate medical attention.
