Medical abortion, as the name suggests, is abortion by medicine. It is one of the most popular methods to terminate an unwanted pregnancy until 8-9 weeks.
Typically, the process involves your OB-GYN suggesting you a combination of two drugs- mifepristone and misoprostol. The abortion starts within 24 hours of taking these medicines and takes roughly 7-10 days to complete.
However, please note that you consider MTP only under the strict guidance of an experienced and licensed OB-GYN. It must not be tried alone at home.
Abortion, when done unguided or at a shady unregistered quack, can result in multiple complications and side effects such as incomplete abortion, extensive bleeding, tearing of the cervix, pelvic and urinary infection, nausea, fever, and chills. Data reports more than 10 women die every day because of unsafe abortion in India.
Therefore, if you considering undergoing an abortion, please do not take a risk. We provide free and 100% confidential consultation. Call now to consult online or offline.

Procedure
Abortion by medicine can only be done if the pregnancy is normal and the gestation period is less than 8-9 weeks. Therefore, to confirm if you can undertake a medical abortion, your OB-GYN suggests 2 kinds of tests:
Medical abortion is done using a combination of two medicines- Mifepristone and Misoprostol. They are commonly known as abortion pills/ RU486/ MTP kit.
The first medicine- ‘Mifepristone’ is taken at the clinic. It blocks the necessary hormone for pregnancy and detaches the embryo from the uterine wall. After that, another medicine- ‘Misoprostol’ is taken within 48 hours to cause uterine contractions and slightly open the cervix to help expulsion. It can be taken both- at home or at the clinic.
The passing of the pregnancy starts within 24 hours of taking the second medicine and takes around 7-10 days to complete.
Right after you pass the pregnancy, please arrange for a follow-up. An ultrasound exam must be taken within 15 days to ensure complete abortion. In case the abortion fails or turns uncomplete, surgical intervention is employed.

While considering an abortion, we suggest you carry the following:
Abortion by medicine generally takes 7-10 days to complete. However, the duration may also vary a little depending on the type and duration of pregnancy along with the woman’s general health and body-to-body mechanism.
It is important that you stay in touch with your OBGYN throughout this time and report immediately in case of chills, fever, nausea or abnormally extensive bleeding.
Yes, medical abortion is generally more painful than surgical abortion. This is simply because abortion by medicine makes your uterus contract and expel the pregnancy tissue more naturally. Based on your weeks in your pregnancy, and general health, you might have moderate to extensive cramping and bleeding for upto 5-7 days.
In contrast, surgical abortion expels the complete pregnancy under anesthesia, and the pain felt is only mild and recovery- quickest.
Yes. Since the passing of the pregnancy after medical abortion is generally painful and comes with a lot of cramping, nausea, and weakness, it is likely that you would need bed rest. We suggest you rest for at least 5-7 days post-abortion.
Yes, but the side effects are not long-term. Mild-moderate abdominal pain, a slight fever, and nausea are common after misoprostol. Soon, these symptoms slide away within 24 hours and the pain fades through after complete abortion.
Please note that, if these symptoms do not end within 24 hours, it is a sign of infection and you must contact your OBGYN immediately.
Recovery after medical abortion is a very personal affair and differs from woman to woman and case to case. While you can continue your basic routine, even as you pass your pregnancy, you are likely to feel extensive bleeding and cramping as you do so. Therefore, we suggest you restrict your work for some time and rather rest for a minimum of 5-7 days. Let your body heal and recover. Then, as you feel better with time, resume your work slowly and gradually.
You are likely to resume your periods within 1-1.5 months after medical abortion. However, it may take some time for your periods to stabilize and fall back to their regular cycle.
No, unless complications are raised, the abortion pill has no effect on future pregnancy or fertility. It is a highly safe and trusted method of aborting early pregnancies throughout the world.
Both medical and surgical abortions are safe ways to terminate an unwanted pregnancy. However, which is best for who, varies from case to case and primarily on your type (normal, molar or ectopic pregnancy) and weeks in pregnancy, general health, and personal choices. Therefore, to know what would work best for you, discuss individually with your OBGYN.
However, standard differences between both are as follows:
Medical abortion is not an option if:
As you prepare for your medical abortion, consider the following steps:
Usually, a follow-up visit with your doctor is essential within 15 days of medical abortion. Your doctor performs a pelvic ultrasound to confirm whether the abortion is complete or incomplete during this visit.
Apart from this, you should visit a doctor immediately after medical abortion if you experience the following:-
Though the abortion ends the present pregnancy, you are likely to ovulate very soon and become fertile again. Therefore, to avoid an unwanted pregnancy in the future, it is important you switch to birth control immediately.
