Familiarise yourself with the medical abortion process 👇

💜 The first pill, Mifepristone, works by blocking the hormone progesterone, which is needed for a pregnancy to continue developing. Without progesterone, the pregnancy cannot grow further.

💜 The second pill, Misoprostol, is taken up to 48 hours later. It makes your uterus cramp & bleed, which helps to empty it.

💜 The entire process takes about 5 hours to complete, although it can sometimes take up to 24 hours for the pregnancy tissue to pass completely.
