A member asked:

In the case of an unplanned pregnancy, how safe is the abortion pill? i have heard horror stories. the earlier in the pregnancy is it easier to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Abortion: Medical abortion is quite safe and effective if done under medical supervision and early in pregnancy, usually not later than 7-8 weeks. Contact your local planned parenthood clinic if there is one near you , if not speak to your gynecologist. Good luck!
