Understanding Abortion Options for Molar Pregnancy: Safety & Considerations


Question
QUESTION: They think I have a molar pregnancy (went to the emergency room got referred to obgyn Monday...) is it at all possible to have the pill abortion in this case?? I have been through a surgical abortion before and it was not a fun thing to go through.

ANSWER: Hello, A,

The LAST thing you should do is take a powerful medication! These pills are very dangerous and can kill you. One of the medications has explicit instructions it is not to be taken by a pregnant woman. If you have a molar pregnancy, you have an abnormal situation to begin with. Even if you survive after taking pills, you could be asking for a lifetime of grief. Already, since you had a surgical abortion, there are some things you need to watch for. If you do become pregnant with a normal child, there is the danger you could have a miscarriage or very early birth. Very early birth can lead to severe birth defects. Your doctor will need to know you had a surgical abortion so he can fasten your cervix shut and prevent this. It can also cause problems at the time of birth. If you aborted your first child, you are at risk for breast cancer. It is best not to have a mammogram. Try to find a place where you can have a regular thermogram. There are natural remedies for breast cancer, and there are also remedies that will tend to prevent it. The most effective remedy I know about is to take a regular supplement of Vitamin D3. You will need to have your blood levels of Vitamin D checked from time to time to make sure that it is within a normal range, because it is possible to overdose and develop toxicity. But most people's Vitamin D level is too low to begin with.

Most of the time, a molar pregnancy will resolve itself. There is the possibility of carrying both a molar pregnancy and a normal child, and in that case, the normal child can be carried and can be born, and will be all rignt, and it probably will resolve the problem of the molar pregnancy as well. If it is just a molar pregnancy, your body will naturally have a miscarriage as a general rule. Occasionally, so I understand, a molar pregnancy can lead to cancer. Again, the best remedy would be Vitamin D3.

I recommend you follow up with visits to the doctor. Try to get the doctor to leave you alone and see how things resolve. If the situation doesn't resolve itself, have the doctor do whatever he feels is wise. Insist that he test your hormones from time to time until the situation is resolved. It certainly would be pointless to do anything to your body if the situation will take care of itself. If it turns out you have a normal child instead of a molar pregnancy, or in addition to one, please don't try to have another abortion by any means. It is dangerous, and you have already damaged your body and you don't need to do more. Please let me know how you do, and stay safe.

QUESTION: So I can or can't have an abortion using the abortion pill??

Answer
Hello, A,

I'll make it as straightforward as I can. Most likely, the situation will take care of itself, in which case, you wouldn't need an abortion. If you have an abnormal situation (molar pregnancy), it would be very unwise to have an abortion anyway. The abortion pill is dangerous and can kill you. If you want to risk your life, and you don't care if the situation takes care of itself, you can do that. I can't stop you. But why would you want to? Most of the time, a woman wants an abortion because she can't take care of a child. In the case of a molar pregnancy, there is no child.

I recommend against using the pills because they are dangerous and can kill you, and if your body will get rid of the molar pregnancy without you doing anything, why not let it?

Talk to your doctor. If he thinks you need to do anything, he'll tell you.

Don't panic. It's not an emergency situation. Take it easy, and let your body take care of the problem.

In other words, don't take the pills.
