Websites such as MedsNoPrescriptionOnline.com sell tablets aimed at aborting a pregnancy, but I would strongly advise that you don't use them.
How do abortion tablets bought online work?
Abortion pills work by detaching the embryo from the uterine wall. A further pill is taken at a later date to flush out the embryo in what often seems like a regular period, but over a longer duration.
Side effects and complications
As with all medical procedures, abortion tablets can cause a variety of mild to serious side effects, including:
- Dizziness
- Vomiting
- Diarrhoea
- Hot flushes
Serious side effects include:
- Heavy bleeding
- Abdominal pain
- Fever
- Vaginal discharge
You should seek medical attention if you have any of the more serious side effects.
