WHAT ARE THE RISKS AND BENEFITS OF ABORTION PILL REVERSAL

If you’ve taken the first drug in the abortion pill regimen (mifepristone) and regret your decision, Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) gives you a chance to reverse mifepristone’s effects to continue your pregnancy.

Abortion Pill Reversal consists of a high dose of progesterone, which aims to counteract mifepristone’s anti-progesterone effects.

When it comes to APR, time is of the essence. If you regret your decision, contact Heart of the Hills today to start APR treatment—or keep reading to learn more.

What Are the Risks of Abortion Pill Reversal?

The progesterone that’s used in APR treatment has been safely used in pregnancy for over 50 years.

However, like any medication, APR comes with side effects, the most common of which include:

  • Sleepiness
  • Lack of energy
  • Lightheadedness
  • Dizziness
  • Gastrointestinal discomfort
  • Headaches

This list isn’t exhaustive, and these side effects can be severe. It’s important to have medical oversight whenever you start a new medication.

If you regret taking mifepristone and are considering continuing your pregnancy through APR, it’s essential to speak with a healthcare professional right away.

At Heart of the Hills, we’re here to listen to your questions and concerns, offer information, and provide APR treatment.

What Are the Benefits of Abortion Pill Reversal?
