Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) is the process of taking progesterone (a naturally occurring hormone) to counteract the effects of mifepristone (the first drug in the abortion pill regimen).
If you’ve taken mifepristone but regret your decision, APR provides an opportunity to continue your pregnancy. But timing is critical! APR is most effective if started within 24-72 hours after taking mifepristone.
At Heart of the Hills, we offer APR treatment. If you’re ready to get started, contact us right away.
Or read on to learn more about how APR treatment works and find answers to other commonly asked questions.
How Does Abortion Pill Reversal Work?
When you take mifepristone, it blocks progesterone in your body. This is an essential hormone during pregnancy, and without it, your uterine lining will loosen and eventually shed—causing your pregnancy to detach and end.
The goal of Abortion Pill Reversal is to counteract the effects of mifepristone. APR works by flooding your body with extra progesterone.
Is Abortion Pill Reversal Safe During Pregnancy?
Yes. Abortion Pill Reversal has been used safely during pregnancy for the last 50 years.
Is It Too Late to Start Abortion Pill Reversal?
Abortion Pill Reversal has the best chance of being successful if started within 24 to 72 hours of taking mifepristone. However, if it’s later, and you haven’t yet taken the second abortion drug (misoprostol), APR might still be an option.
However, time is of the essence! If you’ve taken mifepristone and regret your decision, it’s critical to start APR immediately.
