WHAT IS A Medical Abortion

Medical management of abortion generally involves either a combination regimen of mifepristone and misoprostol or a misoprostol-only regimen. These medications, taken at the appropriate dosage, ensure complete uterine evacuation without surgery, D&C or use of manual vacuum aspiration. They are also indicated for early pregnancy loss and post abortion care.

What is a medical abortion?

Medical abortion is an abortion caused by taking a series of pills (a combination of Mifepristone and Misoprostol or Misoprostol alone) that lead to a termination of pregnancy.

How Medical Abortion works:

The pills relax the cervix and cause contractions within the uterus. Different from emergency contraception pills, the medicine used in medical abortion pills can be used months after the first missed period.
