Is it possible to change my mind after taking the first abortion pill?

If you have taken the first abortion pill (mifepristone) and wish to continue the pregnancy, it is essential to contact your healthcare provider immediately. In some cases, the pregnancy may continue if only mifepristone has been taken, as it is the second pill, misoprostol, that causes the uterus to contract and expel the pregnancy. However, mifepristone alone can still lead to a miscarriage or incomplete abortion.

There is a possibility that the pregnancy may continue, but it is important to understand that there is no guarantee, and there may be an increased risk of birth defects or complications due to the exposure to the medication. Your healthcare provider will discuss your options and help you determine the best course of action based on your specific situation.
