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.

Contact us right away to get started. If it’s after hours, please call or text our emergency hotline at 830-733-0397, and one of our caring team members will respond as soon as possible.

What Are the Benefits of Abortion Pill Reversal?

The biggest benefit of APR treatment is the chance to continue your pregnancy. If you regret taking mifepristone, APR is the only effective way to ensure that your pregnancy has an opportunity to continue.

However, APR timing is critical. APR is most effective if started within 24-72 hours of taking mifepristone. If you regret taking mifepristone, don’t delay. Contact Heart of the Hills to get started on APR treatment right away.
