Medical induced abortion (also known as "the abortion pill") is a safe and effective way to end a pregnancy in its early stages. The "abortion pill" is the popular name given to the process of taking two different medications to terminate a pregnancy: mifepristone and misoprostol.
First you must take the pill called mifepristone. Pregnancy needs a hormone called progesterone to progress normally. Mifepristone blocks the progesterone produced by the body, preventing pregnancy from progressing. Then you should take the medication, misoprostol immediately or up to 48 hours later. This medicine causes cramping and bleeding to empty the uterus.
