Abortion Pill

When to choose medical/chemical abortion?
● If a woman prefers medications over a surgical procedure
● Up to 70 days of pregnancy, it is considered more effective than surgical abortion
● If a woman has congenital deformity of uterus or narrowing of the lower part of uterus (cervix)
● The woman can take some medications at home, which is more convenient

Pre-abortion procedures:

Abortion can be a mentally stressful procedure, so counselling holds an important place in pre-
abortion procedures. The main objectives of this counselling are
● Help the woman to take an informed decision
● Provide knowledge about the procedure
● Remove the anxiety related to the procedure

This counseling can be performed by a nurse, doctor or even an experienced counselor. During counseling the woman is given pregnancy options counselling and informed consent related counselling. A woman may have variety of reasons for opting for an abortion. The counselling helps in taking the correct decision without any mental stress. The counselling also gives an opportunity to prepare the woman for possible adverse effects of the medical abortion. Your doctor will have to ascertain few things before he/she can administer the procedure. These include following investigations.

● Ultrasonography for confirmation of pregnancy and estimation of duration of pregnancy
● Measurement of vital signs (Temperature, Pulse, Blood Pressure, Respiratory Rate, )
● Blood grouping
● Lab tests for sexually transmitted diseases

How this regimen is used (FDA regimen)?

3 days and at least 2 visits to a clinic are required for this method.

Day 1

During initial visit, history is taken and examination of the woman is done followed by pre- abortion counselling and investigations. Once the consent is obtained and contraindications are excluded, a tablet containing 200 mg of Mifepristone (RU-486) is given orally to the woman and advised to re-visit on day 2-or 3

Day 2 0r 3

She is given the second tablet containing misoprostol (800 microgram) on day 2 or 3 at clinic. Usually following consumption of second tablet, there will be bleeding from vagina and cramps will be felt in the abdomen. This is due to contraction of uterus and expulsion of aborted products of pregnancy. Antibiotics may also be given to prevent the infection. A pain killer medicine can be given to alleviate the pain.

Follow up visit-

She is advised to visit on day 15 for re-examination and to ascertain that the abortion is complete. It also gives an opportunity for a doctor to check the health status of the woman. Just like in the earlier regimen the woman is asked for a follow up visit on the 15th day. Call us to find out contraindications of regiment.
