| 4 | Abortion | None. | I was satisifed with how well it worked, but waiting two weeks for my follow-up apptmt. to find out if it was complete was excrutiating. Only do this if you can take the wait. Surgery was too scarey for me so if I had to I would go this route again, but I think it works best really early in pregnancy. I was only about 3 weeks preg. Also, please don't do a home preg to see if it worked. You'll drive yourself crazy. My test said positive almost two weeks after taking Mifeprex, although I wasn't preg anymore. My doc said the hormones can hang around for a while so let your doc tell you if you're still pregnant. It will keep you off the emotional rollercoaster. | M | 36 | | 6/5/2006 | 3 | abortion | This was incredibly painful (as bad as, if not worse than natural childbirth - which I have had two). It is not any cheaper nor easier to go this route. Now 10 months later I have endometrio cells outside of my uterus (possibly endometriosis) which can be from surgery or childbirth (need to go in for futher testing) - I bet it is from this procedure. Do not take this option lightly - if you can have a surgical procedure done by a reputable hospitable I would do so. | I also experienced blood "gushes" a couple of days after the procedure - thank goodness I was at home - I went back to Planned Parenhood - thought I was hemorrhaging. | F | 42 | 1 days | 5/3/2006 | 1 | pregnant | oh my god its the worst feeling ever! they need to ban this shit. it feels like i was having kid but ten times worst. i do not reccomend this to anyone | PLEASE DONT USE THIS! GO WITH THE SURGERY | F | 22 | 3 days | 4/23/2006 | 3 | termination of 5 weeks pregnancy | I went to Planned Parenthood, where I was examined, supplied with the abortion pills, RU-486 or, also called as Mifepristone, and a few mild pain killers, and, then, send home with instruction to take the pills by myself. After taking them, I was suffering prolonged, severe and disabling pain. I was crying, moaning from pain for 2 hours, then, just lying down. I had been just lying down for 6 more hours in such severe pain that I wasn't able to move my body, lift my head, and call for help. In 10 hours, when I was able to hardly move, I called emergency of Planned Parenthoodand and told about my pain, on which I was told that they couldn't help me, it was a part of a procedure, and I just gotta take it. | I couldn't take any effective painkillers because the clinics wouldn't let this medicine out. There's no excuse for women to suffer unnecesary pain in these modern times. Women pay from 400$-700$ dollars for pills and deserve better treatment. I'm satisfied with the medicine but I'm not satisfied with the procedure, and I claim that this practice is violation of humans' rights in the US, and something should be done about it. | F | 20 | 1 times | 11/20/2005 | 3 | termination of 5 week pregnancy | I went to Planned Parenthood, where I was examined, supplied with the abortion pills, RU-486 or, also called as Mifepristone, and a few mild pain killers, and, then, send home with instruction to take the pills by myself.

In the end I spent a week in the hospital on 3 of the most potent anti-biotics available, as well as some heavy-duty narcotic pain killers. | If I were supervised in the hospital and given anti-biotics, nothing might have happened. I have constant sharp pains in my abdomen and have been told the scar tissue left over from the infection may now keep me from becoming pregnant in the future... | F | 31 | 1 days | 11/20/2005 | 1 | abortion | I had severe cramping. The pain was equal to child-birth contractions. I have 2 kids, I know what I am saying. | I would never ever take these pills again. It is not worth it. | F | 41 | 1 times | 11/20/2005 | 5 | 32 | | 3/3/2001 |
