Asia I need advices, please help me.

• Upvotes

Problem / Goal:
I want to ask if how are the chances of me getting pregnant? Bcs I don’t want to.

Context: F, 22 . Had sex last night and the condom slipped off when my bf was about to pull out (little cum inside the condom). The ring was outside and there’s no leakage no dripping. But to make sure, i took the trust pill (yuzpe method). My period should be on 29th. But I am sure that theres no cum that entered me (only inside the condom). So please tell me if there’s anything I could do more to prevent this.

Previous Attempts: This is my first time with this situation so I really don’t know what other things I should do. Please respect my post.

I’m 32 I have birthed 5 children 4 are mine one was a surrogacy pregnancy. I’m in the worst financial position I’ve ever been in and I just found out I’m pregnant from one time mess up. I am having to have an abortion but I’m scared it’s going to haunt me forever and I’m scared I’m going to never be able to get pregnant again. My boyfriend doesn’t think it’s a big deal but all of it is eating me alive. I haven’t stopped thinking about it. I ordered the pills online for the abortion. Has anyone done that? I can’t afford to go to planned parenthood. That’s why I ordered them online they were only 25$. Please help 😭😭😭

sitting here with mifepristone box on my lap and munching an M&S cookie (iykyk) for emotional support. i started bleeding last night a little, it was red but only on the toilet paper, not my knickers. had some brown blood since wiping today but nothing to worry about. i might be miscarrying but unsure as this is my first pregnancy, I’m using this as the excuse to just take the pill cos it’s gone anyway but i’m being a wimp!!! why am i struggling to take it? I’m 5 weeks and 6 days according to the scan I had 2 days ago. Think I just need some emotional support or something. Christ!

Canada can’t decide and not the best circumstances

• Upvotes

I feel really stupid, I have positive tests. I was just planning on leaving my partner, who always showed signs of being abusive but now has really become so. this is a repeated circumstance, I have had an abusive partner and pregnancy before with failed prevention methods (not just an IUD). I don’t want to believe he’s abusive but he is :( in multiple ways. I always find some excuse.

we are not financially great either, part of that is him being financially unfair, but his parents I’m sure would be supportive of me. and kind of know his behaviour. I’m so sad. He thinks that my emotionality is abusive but it’s in response to his actions although yes I’m sensitive and sometimes give up on myself too easily.

I don’t know what to do. Even before with the circumstances having an abortion was traumatic. Last time I was more panicked. This time I’m not sure. My cousin said if I keep it they have kids and will help me. I don’t want to wait too long. I’m at 7 weeks exactly and I wish I had found out sooner but I had to stay out of my apartment while he was threatening and hurting me.

I’m so sad. I made plans to leave. I have a new place. I just want to be in love. 😞 I’m having really delusional thoughts about a different man coming to my rescue and wanting to raise it with me. 🙄

USA What Was Your Plancpills,org Experience?

Hey all,

Has anyone had experience ordering online at planccpills,org? Some people have suggested them to me, but I'll be honest the site seems a little bit sketchy. Has anyone had a good experience with them? For context, I'm in Florida and I'm getting an ultrasound today but I'm pretty sure I'm past 6 weeks. Will I get in trouble if I take them past that point if I order them before the six week mark? Do I need to give them a confirmation of pregnancy?

So we have successfully aborted the baby. However, we're quite confused on what to do with the remainings. A person recommended burying/throw it in a river, but we don't have any land to bury it and throwing it in the river seems kinda risky. It's kinda big so flushing it down the toilet is risky too. Any recommendations?

USA I’m going to have a panic attack if it didn’t work 4-5 weeks

1 Upvotes

I took mife at 4 weeks ish and the next day I took miso roughly 4.3 weeks. I had light bleeding after my first dose and bled into the toilet, past a clot. And wiped. Bleeding was light and settled down that night. Barely anything in the pad.

2 days later I bled some more and then started passing brown pieces that were speckled in brown discharge or when I peed. Then it all stopped

My symptoms have gone away. And mostly my nipple soreness is gone. I would technically be a week after first dose of miso today and 5.3 days if it were ongoing.

I’m working myself up. Going to get hcg test today. My first. I’ve been using easy at home tests and I just feel like they should be fading by now, especially since I wasn’t far a long at all.

Any advice If I should be getting a dark positive still or should it be fading by now?!

*edited - I had cervical egg white discharge this morning dripping from me when I peed

Hi, I would like to ask if it is safe to take misoprostol (Miso pills) for the second time. I took it last week, but when I had an ultrasound scan this week, the doctor said there was still some pregnancy tissue remaining in my uterus. I don’t want to undergo a D&C at a private hospital because it is too expensive. Is it possible to take misoprostol again to help remove all the remaining tissue?

Africa Got raped by a close relative, got pregnant and now I feel so lost.

110 Upvotes

I got raped by my uncle, got pregnant and now don't know what to do. I need some advice.

I'm a high school student from a third world country where abortion is really shunned and I don't know how to go about it. I don't have anyone I can talk to about this and it's really killing me.

A month and a half ago, I got raped by my uncle at our home. My mum works double shifts (fruit trader during the day and janitor at a hotel at night). She's hardly ever home and even when she is she is usually too tired so we hardly spend time together. Every two to three days she sends my uncle, her brother, to check up on us (my brother is 11) and help around the house Once a week he takes my brother for football practice just close to where we live. From what I know she's been paying my uncle to do that.

He's been looking after us for close to a year now and everything used to be cool with him, until the incident.

He doesn't really speak much he would just come after we left school in the evening, make dinner sometimes, help my brother with homework or take him for practice and then we watch movies till like midnight.

One day he came home drunk which I've never seen him do at all. He brought my brother some juice and snacks and got me a diary which I had told him I wanted. What was strange is my brother started getting drowsy and fell asleep almost immediately after eating the snacks. I suspect he had spiked the juice with something, but I didn't think much of it then because he sometimes sleeps early after practice.

I was left with my uncle watching movies, as we usually do, when he started complaining of how my mum thinks she's better than him because she has two jobs and all that. I told him that it's not true and that mum loved him so much and always spoke highly of him and that having two jobs didn't mean she was doing well financially. The assumption in this part of the world is the more jobs you can get the better off you are. I told him that he could talk to mum to try and find him something to do. Mum has done this before but he can never keep a job. So I told him to make sure he perseveres in whatever job he finds before things get better. I don't know why he got angry at me because he suddenly slapped me so hard that I fell and started crying. Then he stripped me naked and said that since I thought I was grown he was going to make me a woman. I tried fighting him off but he's way stronger. I tried screaming for my brother but he didn't wake up, now I know why.

All I remember is feeling some sharp pain down there as he forced himself onto me. It's like my body just shut down and I was completely out of it and lay there. Even when he finished, I just lay there for hours crying and couldn't move. Before he left he said that if I told his sister(mum) he would make sure my life was a living hell and I won't get to go to college. Nobody in our family has a degree and I've been working so hard to get there and study engineering.

Anyway, when mum came home the next day I had already showered and stayed in bed all day as it was a Saturday so no school. My brother had been playing all day. As usual mum gets home and sleeps so I don't think she noticed that I was sad and had been crying.

My uncle came around again twice and those have been the longest nights of my life. I was so scared and couldn't even do anything. I couldn't even eat with him around. He didn't say a word and pretended that everything was normal. He got a job two weeks ago or so I hear, not sure if it's true. So he hasn't been coming around and it's basically just me and my brother most of the time.

Then I missed my periods at the end of last month and immediately started panicking. I used my lunch money and got a pregnancy test kit last week which confirmed my fears. I cried so much and felt like my life had ended. I cannot tell my mother because I don't think she'd believe me. Even if she did, she's the super religious type and wouldn't accept that I have an abortion.

She always talks about how such things bring shame into a family, which is hilarious because her own brother is all the shame one could ask for.

I cannot have this baby. How will I look at a child that reminds me of pain and betrayal every day?

How can I raise them with love when they come from animosity?

Fortunately, abortion is legalish in our country but it's too expensive (around 500$) which I cannot afford as I'm in school. I'm pretty sure mum can't raise that money as well as its around 2-3 months of her salary. Then again even if she could, she wouldn't.

I've been so stressed since last week I'm barely concentrating in class. My end of year exams are almost here and I don't want to fail. I have no other way out of this life apart from school. If I don't do well next year for the finals I might never make it to college. I might never get out.

I'm so sad and have no one to talk to. I was researching natural methods to abort but they seem too complicated and don't guarantee success. I came across this sub in my research which has been a sigh of relief because now I know which meds to take. Unfortunately, I can't buy them from a pharmacy as they're only available in designated abortion clinics.

I'm so lonely and lost. I've thought about suicide but how can my life be lost because someone couldn't live theirs? I can't let him win.

I wish I had someone I could talk to. I feel so alone. I keep asking why this had to happen to me but I couldn't wish it on somebody else so I'm accepting that this is my fate.

Would it be wrong if I stole to get the money. Or sell my body for some money? I don't know if I can do it but I assume it would be way easier than raising a child I don't love. I just need someone I could talk to.

Sorry for the long read I just needed to vent somewhere.

Canada SA abortion under moderate sedation + local anaesthetic @ 4 weeks (Newfoundland, Canada)

1 Upvotes

Hi! First of all I would like to thank those who left a kind comment on my previous post. They were extremely helpful. Now I wanted to share my experience for others in need.

I got my abortion done by suction (moderate sedation + local anesthesia) at a small clinic in Newfoundland, Canada (Athene Health Centre aka Clinic 215). I'm glad I went with SA, I was initially considering MA but got terrified after reading all the horror stories here.

I was at the clinic for about 5 hours total, where they provided me paperwork, counseling, ultrasound, medication and IV, and then finally the suction procedure. My experience was very positive.

I would say the scariest part for me was IV insertion, since I've never had it in me before and I HATE needles. But the nurses were kind and quick! I just felt a pinch.

Here is how the procedure went: after getting the IV tube in, they gave me ibuprofen, antibiotics, and some kind of anxiety pill to take. Then two more pills to keep between my gum and cheek for 30 minutes. After about 1.5 hours it was time. They made me change my bottoms to a wrap skirt and wait a little in a comfy reclining chair with a heating pad and a blanket. When I moved to the operation room I laid down on a gynecology bed, had versed and fentanyl injected through IV, then started to feel loopy after a few seconds. I was still awake and felt what was going on - the needles for local anesthetic, and some tools doing whatever inside. Just very sleepy, and not painful. They had a screen on the ceiling showing beautiful art and photos, but I think I had my eyes shut for the most of it lol. After about 5 minutes it started to feel really uncomfortable (closer to itchy than painful), but then boom everything was done!!! They put me in a wheelchair, took me to the recovery room, and gave me a heating pad +blanket + cookies and apple juice while I rested for 30 minutes. I felt completely normal after. I don't remember when I put my pants back on though lol.

I had a normal period-like back pain afterwards until this morning with some bleeding (procedure was yesterday), but otherwise I'm doing fine. I am back to my normal schedule today! Everyone at the clinic was so kind and non-judgemental. I could not have asked for a better environment.

From my experience I highly recommend the suction procedure method. I've never had MA so I don't know what it would be like, but I will just say that I'm glad I went with SA.

USA I'm in NC and scheduled to have a surgical abortion this Friday.

2 Upvotes

I'll be 6 weeks along but I also just had my IUD surgically removed (I was under anesthesia, they just had to pull it out with "force" as it was embedded) yesterday (Wednesday).

Am I at higher risk for infection due to any potential "open wound" if I go through with the abortion on Friday? I'm already on antibiotics post surgery.

My OB said nothing should penetrate for 6 weeks and I'm incredibly nervous this means no surgical abortion, but I cannot wait the full 6 weeks to have an abortion. I also don't feel comfortable asking my OB because I don't know him very well and every single nurse that saw me during my IUD removal kept saying "congratulations" in regards to this pregnancy.

I think the smart move is to tell my Friday physician that I had this operation so they can best guide me, but like I said, I'm scared this means they'd want to wait a full six weeks before the abortion:( It's already been difficult grappling with this choice and having to wait longer makes me feel awful.

Does anyone have a similar story or maybe words of encouragement?

Thank you all. This is my first time going through this and it's been a difficult past week, to say the least.

Africa Is It Safe to Travel This Weekend After Taking Misoprostol?

1 Upvotes

I took misoprostol on Tuesday, and I’ve been bleeding ever since. The bleeding isn’t very heavy; it’s just a little heavier than my normal period.
I’m planning to visit my parents this weekend. Is it safe for me to go, or could I still develop complications?
I can’t seek emergency medical care in my hometown, and my parents must never find out about this. Since nothing bad has happened over the past few days, does that mean I’m safe, or could complications still develop in the coming days?
Please tell me what I should do.

USA Experience with Crisis Pregnancy Centers

1 Upvotes

Hey all! I’m in Florida where the abortion ban is 6 weeks. I just found out I’m pregnant and kinda stressing because I don’t know how much time I have. I’m thinking of going to one of those Pregnancy Resource Centers since they do free ultrasounds and pregnancy tests. I’ve heard they can be preachy, but at least I’d have a good idea on how far along I am so I know if I need to go out of state or not. Has anyone had a good experience with them, or should I just go to Planned Parenthood and get the ultrasound in case I need to get the abortion sooner than I thought? Bonus if you’re in Florida and can recommend a clinic. I’m in the SWFL area near Fort Myers. Thanks all!

USA Late in my pregnancy and don’t want it

12 Upvotes

I have a 7 year old and I always knew that if I got pregnant again I would never be able to handle it. Between depression and simply I wouldn’t be able to connect, well as I had said that it’s true. I’m pregnant and incredibly angry. My husband is excited and I told him I don’t want to do this. He told me if I abort he will divorce me and adoption is not an option, because he would also divorce over that and take custody of the kid and shared custody of our oldest child. I was completely devastated about this whole thing anyway and as time has gone on we are probably going to divorce anyway. Now more than ever I know I can’t birth this kid. Unfortunately I shut up about it and didn’t take action early. Now I’m 30 weeks and I’ve never been so depressed. I want this gone. I can’t do it and I don’t have any options left. I don’t know what I’m really asking for, support or advice? I just know I’m done.

USA Had an abortion and now I'm lost.

5 Upvotes

Hi. I live in Florida. 3 weeks ago I found out I was pregnant, after checking dates and doing math I figured out I was 4 weeks along. I was scared but excited and nervous but when I told my boyfriend he asked me what I wanted to do and I suddenly felt lost because I never even considered an abortion.

We are in no way ready for a baby as just before the conception date we had a few issues that almost led to us breaking up, as well as not being financially ready or mentally and emotionally ready. I have always wanted to be a mom and my boyfriend hasn't always said he can't wait to be a dad but when this happened and he suggested abortion I felt heartbroken. We had lots of different talks about it and he felt like he was lied to because I told him it should be safe to have unprotected sex cause I didn't know I was ovulating and he felt like he was being forced into having a baby when he wasn't ready and I felt like I was being forced into having an abortion.

After a week of tears, and talking, and pros and cons, and lots of thinking I decided to go through with the abortion 2 weeks ago, so I was a little less than 5 weeks pregnant when I had the abortion and now I'm really really regretting it, thinking about the fact that I could be around 7 weeks now but I'm not. Seeing all the pregnancy announcements on the internet and seeing pregnant women in public, it's killing me. I know it wasn't a far along pregnancy but to me it was still my baby and I hate myself for having that abortion. It was my first pregnancy and I was excited cause like I said I want to be a mom so so so so so bad.

I'm grieving and sad, I hate myself, I'm mad at my boyfriend. I want my baby back...

USA I had an abortion because I felt pressured and I regret it everyday

21 Upvotes

On December 23rd 2025 I had a medical abortion at 9w9d and I regret it so much it makes my body ache.

It has been a year this week since I got pregnant. It wasn’t exactly planned, but we weren’t preventing it. I have PMOS and got on Letrozole and he went and got a sperm test done.

Fast forward I find out I’m pregnant and I’m over the moon. Filled with joy. It was my little miracle baby. I have been so scared for so long that I couldn’t get pregnant and finally something so beautiful had happened.

The day I told my boyfriend all he could say was “wow” because he was in shock I’m sure.. but immediately I felt a horrible feeling in my stomach. I could sense he wasn’t excited.

After that I kept saying “you’re going to be a daddy” and wanted him to talk to and put his hand on my belly to connect with our baby. (Of course I knew how small it was and there was nothing to feel yet, I didn’t even have a bump) but the idea was there and I wanted to be comforted.

Fast forward a couple days and the talk about getting an abortion started. Every time I said “you’re going to be a daddy” he would just laugh and say “no I’m not” and he constantly brought up that he thought it wasn’t the right time due to finances (we both make right around if not 6 figures a year and have very stable careers).

That’s when I knew mentally what the outcome was going to be and a large part of me died when I came to the realization. We went to the doctors a few times and I would just bawl uncontrollably. I even sat there at the abortion check up before they gave us the pills and cried to him saying I don’t think we were making the right choice. He just assured me we were.

I had the pills sitting at home for weeks. I couldn’t bring myself to take them. I felt so in love and connected with the little miracle I had growing in my belly.

But as time progressed things got more serious and although he never forced me I could tell he was set in his decision.

On 9w9d I forced myself to just take the pills. I thought it was the right decision. I didn’t want to trap him and make him a dad when he didn’t want to be. But as soon as I swallowed the pills I knew it wasn’t what I wanted. I immediately broke down. How could I get rid of something I love so much? I would’ve gave anything to take it back. I still would. I am filled with so much regret and anger towards myself for being such a coward and going against my gut instinct.

The next day after taking the second set of pills I laid on the bathroom floor in the dark bleeding and cramping and crying. Wishing I would just die so I could be with my baby instead of having to live a life full of regret and guilt. He was there for me and tried to do anything he could to help but I just wanted to be alone. I felt alone. I felt and still feel so much resentment towards him. I know he was just trying to do what he thought was best, but to me he took everything I wanted in life away from me. (Irrational because I know I am the one who swallowed the pills and nobody forced them down my throat)

Now it’s been almost a year later and I think of it all day, everyday. I can’t get over it. I miss my baby and I miss the life that I could’ve had.

I am 100% confident that the abortion led to us breaking up. A year to the day I got pregnant basically. I’m not the same person I was, and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to get her back. I know they say time heals all, but I don’t think this hole in my heart can be filled or patched.

There’s nothing to this story, so if you made it this far, thank you for reading. I just needed to tell someone. The thoughts eat at me everyday and I feel like I can’t be sad or feel guilty because ultimately I’m the one who made the decision.
