Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) attempts to reverse the effects of the abortion pill to help a woman continue her pregnancy and carry to term.
However, time is of the essence when it comes to APR. If you’ve taken mifepristone (the first drug in the abortion pill series) and regret your decision, it’s critical to seek APR as soon as possible (ideally within 72 hours of taking mifepristone).
Don’t delay. If you regret your decision, it may not be too late. Contact the Abortion Pill Reversal hotline at 877.558.0333.
This article will explore the essentials you need to know about how APR works and what you can expect.
How Does Abortion Pill Reversal Work?
To understand how APR works, it’s important to understand how mifepristone functions.
Mifepristone blocks progesterone in your body. Without this necessary pregnancy hormone, your uterine lining will loosen and shed, which causes your pregnancy to detach and ultimately end.
APR attempts to counteract the effects of mifepristone by flooding your body with progesterone.
How Effective Is Abortion Pill Reversal?
The sooner you start APR, the better. Studies have shown APR to be 64-68% effective at counteracting the effects of mifepristone to help a pregnancy continue if taken within 72 hours.
But even if it’s been longer, there’s still a chance you’re pregnant (even if you’ve experienced cramping or spotting). Contact the Abortion Pill Reversal hotline as soon as possible at 877.558.0333.
