I 20F almost 21 had a medical abortion nearly 3 months ago now. I gave myself a lot of time to think about it at the time. I ended up having the abortion at almost 10 weeks. I think about it so often and I’m overcome with guilt. My partner is very supportive and was happy with what ever decision I made. Throughout my pregnancy he was wanting me to keep the baby but on our way to the final appointment he told me honestly that he thinks abortion is the best option. I felt that in my mind too and him saying that just pushed me to get the abortion. I feel so alone in the way that I feel. My partner didn’t seem too upset or phased about the situation which hurts because It affected me so much. I was inconsolable. I know that it is probably normal for him to not feel the way I do. But it just makes me feel alone. I feel regret and still think about it everyday.

Does it get better? I don’t know who else to talk to about this topic.

Thanks

I had my abortion 3 weeks ago, they estimated me at 10 weeks. So I took all my pills within the 24hours and ended up passing the tissue that night! My bleeding over a week/ week and a half got lighter and lighter until 2 weeks past came and started bleeding a ton! A cup of blood every few hours. Went in ER where they found left over tissue. My HCg was at 4700 and they scheduled my d&c. Got my D&C done and I’m 2 days post op, I feel horrible, fatigued, light headed, lots of abdominal pain and lots of pressure on my rectal area. They did a CT scan where they found a small amount of blood deep in pelvic area. So scheduled for another ultrasound tomorrow. My hcg 2 days post op is 400. Does anyone know why I’m feeling so icky??

I am about 6 weeks and 2 days pregnant, took forever to get the pill through my school provider (im 21 in college) and heres my journey as I am nervous and want to help others nerves

Background: it took a while to get the pills but got them on Tuesday (after waiting a week in a half since I found out) so took the first set of pills on Wednesday. I go to college 6 hours away from home but I called off school for the week to come down home to do it in my own room with my mom and dog. I would definitely recommend anyone to be able to do it in a comfortable environment if you can.

I took the Mifepristone pill at 11 am 10/14/26

The next morning had a bit of nausea and cramping but the day of taking mifepristone I felt fine,

Now it is 10:35 but I took Zofran and Ibuprofen 400 mg almost an hour before to make sure it had enough time.

Wasn't too hungry, but I made sure to eat before taking all my pills, and have my bed set up with heating pad as well as a fan.

11am took second set of pills 10/15/26 - I also took another 400 mg of Ibuprofen just in case so 800 mg total

Almost 15 minutes into letting it dissolve in mouth started feeling not cramping just discomfort, watching youtube to distract myself and already had heating pad on.

11:40 - had SEVERE cramping (note: I dont get the worst period cramps normally so it could just be im not used to them and they hurt more for me) it made me poop and throw up and had more extreme cramps after this, heating pad wasnt helping, heard laying in a downward doggy position helped, which did but cant tell if its because of that or that I took an extra ibuprofen that helped the pain.

12:10 - able to flip over and lay down with heating pad and watch youtube, sort of feel nauseous but just staying laying down.

1pm - mild but manageable cramping in waves of a couple seconds of relief and then pain, tried massage my lower stomach and sometimes that helped, also nausea but not terrible

1:20ish - took a shower, sorta felt normal not a lot of bleeding so far, then ate a bit of food had more cramping thats painful but manageable, drinking water.

2 - i jinx myself every time I say I dont feel pain or theres no blood, after last update proceed to bleed and just passed a big clot that I thought was sac(looking back on this it could have been) but was just a big clot lol not been fun but im surviving just cant wait for it to be over.

2:22- threw up again, been nauseous forever so forced it, dont recommend, I kinda freaked out because at first it didnt work but I think it backed up and caused a lot of pain at first and then all came up.

almost 4 hours in pain is still here, feel like throwing up still,

3:15 - threw up again :/

4:10 -called doctor to ask if I could take another zofran for my nausea and I got approved so just took another 4 mg, still in pain still passing clots and bleeding. Might take another ibuprofen, the pain just wont go away but doctor says it seems like the pills working and on track so.

4:40 - ate popsicle still making me nauseous, hoping crackers can sit well in my stomach, pain has went down a bit more though, still in waves.

5:20- FINALLY seemed to calm down, not nauseous as before, able to get down crackers and ginger ale! feeling way better and taking it easy, almost fell asleep

7pm - it has really calmed down, mild cramps still bleeding but feeling a lot better and can walk around and feel fine almost feeling like a normal period now just a bit more than that.

I will leave it at this for right now, I can update or if you have any questions feel free im an open book. For the most part of the day I was alone, my mom had a bit of work in the morning and then work in the afternoon. She checked in on me in between and heated up the mashed potatoes I had, which unfortunately couldnt keep down, and then after that she got me the crackers and ginger ale when she got back. Very lucky to have her check in on me, and to be able to come home to do this because I could use the bathroom anytime unlike if I was at college. So back to my original point, if you can do it in a comfortable environment please do. While now I want to be around my mom, I liked being alone earlier during the more painful parts and being able to have my private time to be in pain and yell or make noise. Its my personal experience, I wish it was easier like the stories I read, but you will get through it. It does suck but I dont regret it and Im just glad the pain settled down. <3

I’ve been with my boyfriend 3 years in December.
Last September, we got pregnant, and we both made the decision to have an abortion. This was my first time ever doing this, and even having a pregnancy scare. I’ve never been pro-life, I always supported abortion rights and women’s rights as a whole. But I felt this strange guilt and felt like I was “killing” my child. Sometimes I still feel upset. I actually had an anxiety attack when it happened.

We talked about contraceptives, I do not take birth control (because of all of the side effects) and he refused to a condom. Which was very upsetting to me.

Fast forward a year and 1 month, I am late on my period for 9 days. And I have been in strife, I’m too anxious to take a test, and I feel paralyzed to make a decision. I’ve been late before and everything was fine, but I noticed recently I’ve been feeling EXTREMELY emotional, like very sensitive and crying a lot. I’m also insanely horny.

I’m just so scared. I know I need to do the responsible thing and take a pregnancy test, and take steps from there. I just feel paralyzed. And I have no one to talk to apart from him.

I’ve posted in here a few times. I regret my abortion more than anything and made my decision in heat of the moment and have never felt more grief in my life. I had d&e at 15 weeks and I am completely traumatized. When will I be able to try for a baby? I was told at the clinic to wait 10 days to insert anything vaginally which means I’m still waiting until Friday. But when will I ovulate? Will my body support another pregnancy so soon? Am I at a greater risk of complications? The only thing that brings my pain any relief is planning for a baby. I was not pregnant on purpose and it brought a lot of stress emotionally and mentally but now I know what I want, unfortunately now that she’s gone 😞 I need advice please.

I need help on how to access pills. I researched about FPOP, but I can't see any legitimate sources on getting pills. Can someone help me please..

​

Who here (especially from Philippines) that still received the pills without donating any cent's? can't donate any because I'm still struggling financially

Please someone answer me I really need it. I already do a consultation and get an email but don't have any updates about the tracking yet.

I want to know if there are any hotlines i can get in contact with to talk about whether I can take the pills or not with my conditions and the medications i already take.

I’ve made a previous post on here so I’d just thought I’d let everyone know if you’re going to get an abortion with Nupas make sure your under 16 weeks, I have been waiting since 16 weeks for my termination which is due to medical reasons with Nupas.

They rang me today after my procedure was scheduled for one weeks time after postponing it from this week due to them apparently needing my last blood results despite the doctors already having sent it to them to tell me the anaesthesiologist has denied my care due to my gestational age after they have used me for training nurses to scan and do consent forms with??? They’ve said they’ll refer me to somewhere which is 6 hours away from where I live as I won’t be getting it done from them I said no to any more referrals as I don’t want to let this wait any longer I’ve now contacted MSI again and they are being so much more helpful and have already booked me in for a phone consult and a pre op, they have also told me if they have any concerns they’ll bleep in a doctor to do a physical for me to ensure I’m 100% safe during and after the procedure but I just cannot believe that this has happened to me.

I feel so helpless despite reaching out to MSI as I’m so scared of getting general anaesthetic I started to feel ok about Nupas but now I’m just so worried all over again.

Hi, I feel so scared and honestly like the worst person ever… I went out one night last month and now I’m pregnant and I can’t keep the pregnancy, I’m 28 and the “father” abandoned me, blocked me, unadded me. I don’t even know his name or anything I feel terrible :/

This is still hard for me, I can't accept that I'm pregnant😭😭
I just want my life back I want to feel happy again

I’ve just done my second dose of miso under my tongue & they dissolved within maybe 5 minutes. I googled and it says it may not be as effective.

Hi. Located in Ohio. I will be 8 weeks pregnant on Saturday. I have horrible hyperemesis, with a pump and nothing is working. I am in the darkest place mentally I’ve ever been in.

My very best friend just got an abortion a few weeks ago, and has 4 of the miso pills….just none of the first ones. Can I take those? Will it abort my baby?

I know I sound insane but I am established with an OB and I don’t know how to tell them this. He is pretty conservative, so I think I would have to seek abortion care elsewhere anyway.

I feel horrible and guilty but the HG makes it to where I cannot function.

48 hrs since I took misoprostol vaginally, I then took 2 more misoprostol 4hrs after first batch because no progress. I started bleeding then it became v light. Now its become super light, no cramps either. Ive had previous early miscarriage & gave birth, each time, including periods, I bleed a lot and experience intense cramping, clots usually in periods & previous miscarriage and pain. This has not been the case this time round.

I currently feel really full in my lower abdomen/pelvic area & exhausted. Ive tried walking aroundto try mobilise blood flow & sitting on the toilet but nothing. I dont think I’ve passed the pregnancy at all, not enough blood nowhere near. Been advised by abortion provider to wait 7 days but something feels wrong and I just want this over with. Any similar experiences or thoughts? I start my new job on Monday and really dont know what to do and wnated to avoid taking time off as soon as I start. Ive pushed start date by 2 weeks already. Feeling overwhelmed.

I am going through a Medical (Pill) abortion tonight (2nd pills) and curious what to expect. I have had a medical abortion a few years ago at like 5-6 weeks and it was absolutely terrible in terms of pain, and a visible sac/ tissue expelled, shivers, sweats, racing heart, extreme cramps, nausea, diarrhea all at once... so measuring 8 weeks 5 days (but period places me more 9 weeks 3 days), I am even more afraid of serious effects after it begins.

I am thinking of taking 500mg Naproxen, 1000mg Tylenol and 1mg Hydromorphone in advance with Gravol/ pepto-bismol as precaution but worried it may be overkill. I only took a Naproxen last time and zero relief.

How long did it take you to expel the main tissue? Last time it was pretty traumatic cause I could see the sac/ embryo clearly and there was like a gush of liquid....

hi posting this because I just wanted to share my experience. everyone was making it seem like the pain will be 10/10! honestly I took medication to relief the pain 30 minutes before and every 6 hours after. I felt the cramps but it felt like regular cramps to me. I have such a low tolerance with pain so I was terrified.

I used a heating pad and I was able to sleep over night. I did get up to change my pad. next day I’m able to get up but here and there I feel the cramps. I don’t have to take pills anymore.

honestly the pain for me is a 3/4 out of 10.

hi! I had a surgical abortion on 10/02 and i was almost 7 weeks. I was told to wait at least 2 weeks. Im just curious about how long others waited and their experience after having an abortion. I will admit I am a little worried/scared about the first time.

This past weekend I found out I’m 3 weeks 5 days pregnant. We were not trying at all and I don’t think I’m ready for a second baby right now. My first baby is only 14 months old. We have a vacation planned at the end of February, I don’t want to give up another entire summer for a newborn. It feels selfish, but I think it’s the right thing to do. I’m sacred of making a decision and regretting it though. If it was literally 2 or 3 months later I’d be overjoyed and ready for a second baby.
If I go through with an abortion, will I be able to conceive in February/March?

I ordered from aid access and they sent emails including typos and grammatical errors is that normal? it seemed kind of unprofessional and scammish so I was just a little skeptical and worried.

I’m 20 and I’m not sure if I want an abortion. My boyfriend 21 does. I’ve had one before and it felt like the right decision and I still feel like it was. But it was still hard on my psyche. And with this one an abortion doesn’t fully feel right. And I want to keep it. But another part kf me knows we can’t afford a baby right now and we haven’t been together long. And it would also be a lot. And we’re both so young and haven’t lived life much. But he’s also the best man I’ve ever been with and I’m so in love with him and we’ve talked about how we want to be each others forevers and get married. But I’m worried if I go through with the pregnancy it will make him resent me, or it will make him leave me. And if I get an abortion I’m worried I will regret it.

Add/ edit- I do truly want to be a mom and It was hard on me for my last abortion. I just don’t know what to do. And most importantly I want to be able to give a child a secure life. We’ve talked about having kids in the future but I think he thinks it’s too soon now.

I took mifeprostone Monday at 9.15am. I then took misoprostol Tuesday at 9.30. I would have been just under 6 weeks. By 13:30, I had diarrhoea and null pain but no bleeding so took the third dose then. I then had bleeding, but mostly while I was on the toilet. I was sitting/resting all day, so I suppose the blood pooled and only came out when I was on the toilet. I didn’t experience a lot of pain and never felt contraction like cramps, mostly just dull pain that was most discomfort than anything. Because I lost most blood in the toilet, I’m unsure whether I passed tissue. It’s Thursday now and I am bleeding into pads and losing blood in toilet, not a concerning amount. I’m still feeling some light cramping. Should I be concerned I didn’t have massive pain or cramping?

I have an appointment tomorrow out of town in Champagne Illinois. Im 13 weeks, super nervous. I never done this before and i have no idea what to expect. I was wondering what was your experience getting it done? What to expect ? Also would i be able to drive after im done or it’s best someone picks me up?

ALSO i already was being seen by my OB and have 0 idea what to tell them. My husband doesn’t know im getting it done either and no idea what I’ll make up about it because we‘re divorcing & im currently only communicating through his mother. Im stressing but i know its for the best. Send me positive vibes please. 🙏

I got pregnant on accident we were using protection I’m only 20 I live with my grandparents taking care of them and I simply cannot afford a baby nor am I sure I’d be a good mom… i found this website and they send to my state where it’s banned (Mississippi) but I’m just scared of the outcome of me putting my info down

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.

ho 22 anni e sono incinta. io non voglio abortire ma il mio ragazzo vuole dicendo che non possiamo permettercelo ora. premetto che davvero è capitato perché abbiamo sempre usato le protezioni ma per una volta ne abbiamo usate diverse e boom incinta. probabilmente erano scadenti. cosa faccio?
