Medical Abortions Up To 10 Weeks

Medical abortion is also known as “the pill abortion.” It is used for between 5 and 10 weeks of pregnancy. You receive the pill Mifiprex which blocks the action of progesterone and causes the pregnancy to die.  This can take hours to several days. The failure rate of a Medical Abortion when the pregnancy continues is 8% or 8 per 100. The only way to be sure that a Medical Abortion has successfully terminated the pregnancy is to follow up with your provider at 3 weeks for an ultrasound of the uterus. A free follow up appointment is an important part of the medication abortion process at Buffalo Womenservices.
