If you’ve taken the first pill of a medication abortion and immediately feel regret or uncertainty, you’re not alone. Many women often feel conflicted or overwhelmed in the moments after taking mifepristone (the first pill of the abortion pill process). Recent studies have also found health risks involved with the Abortion Pill – if you are interested in learning more about this, click here.

The good news? There may still be hope.
It’s called the Abortion Pill Reversal (APR), and it may offer a second chance.

What is the Abortion Pill Reversal?

Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) is a medical protocol designed to counteract the effects of the first abortion pill, mifepristone, using doses of progesterone, a hormone the body naturally produces during pregnancy.

The role of mifepristone is to block progesterone,¹ and the APR works by supplying additional progesterone to help restore the conditions needed to support pregnancy.²

Progesterone has been safely used in pregnancy care for decades, including in cases of miscarriage risk.

How Does APR Work?

The APR process typically involves:

1. Taking high doses of progesteroneorally, by injection, or by vaginal suppository.
2. Beginning treatment as soon as possible, ideally within the first 24 hours.
3. Follow-up ultrasoundsto evaluate progress and ensure safety.

Real-world outcomes show that many pregnancies have continued after attempted chemical abortion when APR was started quickly.²

Is APR Safe?

Progesterone has been widely used in obstetrics for:

• Preventing miscarriages
• Supporting IVF pregnancies
• Correcting hormonal deficiencies

Its safety profile is well documented in medical literature.³ The APR protocol is administered by licensed providers, and patients receive ongoing support and monitoring.²
