For Abortion "I had to insert 8 100 mg tablets vaginally twice 4 hours apart. The first dose did nothing but make me have the most severe cramps of my life. I couldn’t breathe sometimes. Then it let down a little, but it was time for round 2 right then. Round 2 was 10x more intense. I didn’t bleed at all for hours. I only expelled clear liquid similar to water breaking. My pain was so intense I was puking with severe diarrhea. I started to not be able to hold down ibuprofen/Tylenol, and my fever shot up to 103.9. I was rushed into the ER, where I passed the entire fetus and sac in one pass. I lost a good bit of blood and ended up with an infection somewhere in my body. I had to be admitted and probed and catheterized and have IV fluids and meds. I was so shook up by the pain they offered me fentanyl. I denied, took Toradol, and it helped a lot. After the fetus passed, I was perfectly fine. Please just do surgical. That is my biggest recommendation."

For Abortion "I read horror stories, scared myself, so I thought I’d share a good review. Was so tired and sick from the pregnancy that nothing could have been worse. Took the first pill Wednesday at 4:30, woke up Friday very nauseous. Took the pills anyway, after taking the promethazine assigned for nausea and ibuprofen. As soon as the pills dissolved in my mouth, I felt extreme pain, to the point where I couldn’t talk, but only for an hour. Only an hour. I did not vomit or have diarrhea, just extreme pain in the pelvic area. It is now Saturday at 12 and all I have is the occasional period cramp and clotting, but I feel great. I can eat again, full meals! I feel much better. You can do it, I promise :)"
