Medical Abortion Timeline: Understanding Pill Abortion Effectiveness & Safety


Question
Dear, how long a woman can have a medical abortion by taking abortion pills? Is it possible during 7th/8th week of pregnancy?

Answer
Hello, rony,

You asked me a question under two different names. Please let me know what kind of game you are playing. Here's what I told you the first time:

Normally, they won't even offer a woman a pill abortion that late into pregnancy. There is a high failure rate. I don't know where the woman got the pills, or whether she has had them awhile. The pills are very dangerous and could kill her. Surgical abortion is also dangerous. But if she were to take the pills, there's a good chance she'd end up having a surgical abortion anyway, so she'd be subjected to the risks from both. Abortion by any method is simply bad medicine.

There is help available for the woman, so she doesn't have to take this deadly risk. There are organizations, all over the United States, that offer counseling, medical and financial help, furniture, clothing, and supplies for the baby, and help with adoption. To find one near her, she should go here:

At the very least, a doctor should test her hormones to see if the pregnancy is even viable. It may not be. In that case, she would have a miscarriage anyway. She should go to a doctor she can trust. A doctor who believes in doing an abortion on a healthy woman cannot be trusted. Some abortionists will even perform an abortion on women they know aren't pregnant.

Tell her, please don't take these kinds of chances. She deserves better. Help her stay safe. Let me know how things go.
