    Started the procedure at the clinic with the first pill, to no effect but light pink spotting. Took the second medication 30 hours later at home and experienced the expected side effects within 90 minutes. Pain like the worst period ever, cramps, serious diarrhea. Pretty much spent hours pacing between a chair with heated blanket and the toilet for 6 hours, but could eat and drink normally. After ... Show Full Comment

    I took the whole treatment and unfortunately it did not work. I went to my follow up appointment and I still have the sack inside of me. I have to have another procedure done to (another abortion). I do not recommend this medication.

    Today is 12/22/14 and I took my first dose at a clinic on 12/20/14. On the 21st, I vaginally inserted the rest of the treatment. After about 2.5 hours, I was in extreme pain. I went to sit down on the toilet and noticed that I had not yet began to bleed on my pad. I got to the point that I could not feel my arms or legs, and I could not see or hear, kind of like when your blood pressure is really ... Show Full Comment

    I took both meds for the medical abortion: Mifeprex & Misoprostol. It has been 3 days now & still nothing has happened. I called the Women's Center(where I was examined & given the meds) they said to wait till my next appt. Well I am to scared to wait another 3weeks, so I have made an appt with my regular GYN. Hopefully it is not an etopic pregnancy!
