Before & After

An at-home abortion is known as a self-induced abortion, self-managed abortion, taking the abortion pill, or can sometimes be called an online abortion. Any of these come with risks and side effects. It’s essential to gather the abortion facts you need to know, such as what to expect before and after a procedure, prior to making a decision.

Side Effects

Are you wondering what happens to your body after you take the abortion pill? There are many short-term and long-term side effects associated with a self-induced abortion to consider. You need to be aware that the pill used for home abortion has an FDA warning, which is the highest level of caution the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) puts on medication.

Social Pressure

Many women who “choose” to get an abortion, or to take the abortion pill actually don’t choose it at all. Rather, they feel pressured or are even forced against their will.  If this sounds like your situation, know that you always have the right to refuse any type of abortion and there are many resources available to support you.

FDA Warning

You should not buy Mifeprex over the Internet because you will bypass important safeguards designed to protect your health (and the health of others). Non-FDA approved drugs carry risks above and beyond expected side effects.
