Hi,

Other than surgical abortion, medical abortion is using prescribed medications to have an abortion up to 70 days or 10 weeks. It is safe and effective. Also, it works 91-98% of the time. The first medication Mifepristone, works by blocking progesterone, a hormone in the body needed to support pregnancy. This is the medicine that starts the abortion. The second medicine, Misoprostol is used between 12 and 48 hours later. Four tablets should be taken together either by per vaginally or orally. They can cause cramping and bleeding which ranges from being like a regular period to heavy with large clots. The heaviest bleeding can last several hours and there may have irregular bleeding for a weeks after that.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
