What are the possible risks of the abortion pill?
Medication abortion has been used safely in the U.S. for more than 20 years. Serious complications are really rare, but can happen.
These include:
*the abortion pills don’t work and the pregnancy doesn’t end
*some of the pregnancy tissue is left in your uterus
*blood clots in your uterus
*bleeding too much or too long
*infection
*allergic reaction to one of the medicines
These problems aren’t common. And if they do happen, they’re usually easy to take care of with medicine or other treatments.
In extremely rare cases, some complications can be very serious or even life threatening
