I am pregnant and want to get an abortion. What medications should I take?

Asked by Female, 27 · 16 days ago

For a medical abortion (typically effective up to 10-11 weeks of pregnancy), a combination of two medications is standard: Mifepristone and Misoprostol. Mifepristone is taken first to block the hormone progesterone, stopping the pregnancy from growing. Misoprostol is taken 24 to 48 hours later to cause cramping and bleeding to empty the uterus. Because these medications require precise timing and dosage, and to rule out complications like an ectopic pregnancy, they must be prescribed by a healthcare provider. Please schedule an appointment with a doctor or a reproductive health clinic to receive these medications safely and legally.
