Side Effects Of Abortion Pills You Must Know
Bleeding And Cramps
Pain
Fever And Chills
Nausea And Vomiting
Incomplete Abortion
Abortion pills are an option for women who are under 9 weeks pregnant. While less invasive than surgical abortions, abortion pills cause bleeding and pain. Some women also experience headaches, diarrhea, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, fever, and chills. In serious cases, incomplete abortion, continuing pregnancy, and infections are also possible.
If you’re faced with having to undergo a medical abortion in your first trimester, you may want to prepare yourself for some of the possible side effects of the abortion pill. While you will no doubt be impacted emotionally and mentally, the focus here is on the physical side effects.
Medical abortion involves using 2 types of abortion pills, mifepristone and misoprostol, to terminate a pregnancy within the first 9 weeks, and sometimes 10 weeks,1 but not beyond that.
Under a doctor’s guidance, you can swallow a mifepristone tablet. Within the next 24 to 48 hours, as your doctor recommends, you can either take the misoprostol orally or have it inserted into your vagina at a clinic. You must return to the clinic after 7 days for a follow-up checkup.
Medical abortion does not require any sort of surgical procedure and can be taken in the privacy of your own home, but always under medical supervision. Ideally, you should do it in a legally authorized clinic or hospital. Do not self-medicate or buy pills online. For girls under 18, state laws often require parental consent.2
Here’s a look at the side effects of abortion pills.

Mifepristone, the first pill, blocks the hormone progesterone and detaches the fetus from the uterus. This may cause some bleeding in some women within 8 hours.
Misoprostol, the second pill, is a prostaglandin that brings on contractions in the uterus to enable it to empty. This causes heavy bleeding, more than with a regular period. You may also expel tissue and blood clots. The bleeding starts within 4 hours and this process typically takes between 3 and 5 hours, though it may last longer.3
Wear a sanitary pad to absorb the bleeding and to keep track of any spotting. Even if you think the flow has petered out, keep one handy, just in case.
The average duration of bleeding is 17 days,4 but some women may experience a bit of bleeding and spotting as much as 4 weeks after an abortion.
Caution: Very heavy bleeding or hemorrhaging affects about 2 in 1,000 women.5 If you are soaking through 2 pads in 2 hours or passing very large blood clots the size of a lemon or bigger, you are bleeding very heavily. It’s also a cause for concern if you pass blood clots for more than 2 hours.6 Please get emergency medical help.
2. Pain
Pain in the abdomen and the pelvic region typically begins within 3 hours of taking the misoprostol, once your uterus starts contracting. But it’s possible to experience cramps and pain after mifepristone.
It is quite like your period pain, and the pain is more if you usually have painful periods.7 If you are in your 8th or 9th week of pregnancy, it is likely to hurt more than if you are in your 7th week.8 You may even experience back pain.
Pain relief medication, like acetaminophen or ibuprofen, is safe to take. However, health authorities advise against using aspirin to manage the pain as it can increase bleeding.9
