Abortion Pill Reversal

Mifepristone, also known as the abortion pill or RU-486, is prescribed by a doctor within the first seven to ten weeks of pregnancy. The pill blocks the nurturing effects of progesterone which leads to the death of the developing baby. The second medication is called misoprostol or Cytotec. Its purpose is to cause the uterus to contract and expel the baby. Misoprostol tablets are taken orally or inserted vaginally about 36 to 72 hours after taking the mifepristone, which will then cause contractions and expel the remains of the baby. This process may take a few hours or as long as a few days. The mother will need to be examined by her doctor two weeks later to ensure the abortion was complete and to check for complications. The procedure is unsuccessful approximately 5-10% of the time with the potential of requiring an additional surgical abortion procedure to complete the termination.

ABORTION PILL REVERSAL:
If you want to try to reverse the abortion, DO NOT take misoprostol/Cytotec. Then, IMMEDIATELY call this hotline (877) 558-0333. The on call nurse will ask some basic questions to see if reversal is possible and will then connect you with a doctor or medical provider in the area to start treatment. An ultrasound will be done as soon as possible to confirm if your baby is still alive and the doctor or other medical provider will prescribe progesterone, which will be given by injection in the gluteus (“butt”) muscle, by mouth or by vagina. The treatment will continue through your 1st trimester of pregnancy.

Progesterone is the natural hormone in a woman’s body that is necessary to nurture and sustain a pregnancy. Mifepristone blocks progesterone’s actions by binding to progesterone receptors in the uterus and the placenta. By giving extra progesterone, the goal is to outnumber and out compete the mifepristone in order to reverse the effects of mifepristone.

The success rate is about 55%; which means 55% of women who have the reversal continue the pregnancies and deliver healthy babies, while about 45% lose their babies. If a loss occurs, it is usually within the first two weeks of treatment.
