I did my surgery day after finding out and I honestly don’t regret my choice, however, I’m having period like cramps and I’m passing clots like crazy, small and medium sized. Should I be worried? I was fine on day 1 and 2 but now i am lot of pain.
Thanks, specific centres etc would be great
Hi, I’m 5 weeks and 3 days pregnant and I had an MA yesterday. I fasted for 12 hours before taking the pills. Around 12:30 PM, I took 2 pills orally and inserted 2 vaginally. At first, I didn’t feel anything. I even walked around and exercised a bit.
After 2 hours (around 3 PM), I took 2 pills under my tongue, then after 5 minutes another 2 pills. I started having mild cramps, then I pooped and started bleeding with clots. The cramps were tolerable.
At 5 PM, I took another 4 pills. Same thing happened — I pooped again and there were more clots. Later, I took 3 more pills and again had bleeding and clots. There was a lot of blood at one point, but the cramps were still mild and never became severe.
At 9 PM, I took an anti-hemorrhagic medicine because my friends suggested it. After 30 minutes, I ate and started feeling relieved. Right now, I only have light bleeding/spotting. I still pass small clots when I go to the toilet and sometimes have mild cramps.
I’m worried because I wasn’t bleeding super heavily like other people say they did. I also took a pregnancy test and it’s still positive.
Do you think this sounds successful or has anyone experienced something similar?
I got abortion pills coming through the mail. They just sent me instructions and it’s pretty clear it’s going to be painful by the amount of pain meds they tell you to take. I just wondered other peoples experience on a scale of 1-10 how bad was it?
I [26F] recently found out I’m pregnant for the first time and have already scheduled a telehealth appointment for an abortion, And I’m so scared. I know I can’t keep it due to financial reasons and I just ended things with my boyfriend (for consent reasons). Keeping it under those circumstances would be even more scary. This is my first pregnancy and I’m so nervous. I feel a whirlwind of emotions currently and I don’t know what to expect or even how to feel. I chose the pill option and reading some stories on here make me even more nervous and that I’m making a mistake choosing this option instead of the other. It’s all really unexpected and I’m not sure I can call off work if the pain is too bad. Any advice or reassurance helps. 😔
Okay, so I’m 16 and I had unprotected sex yesterday. It’s not my first time, but I’m kind of freaking out.
My discharge beforehand was an egg white consistency which I now learned means that I’m most likely ovulating. My last period was on April 23rd last month.
He didn’t ejaculate inside me and wasn’t close to climax. He also peed beforehand, but I also jerked him off and he climaxed then. We did it for around 30 minutes and an hour at most.
What are my chances of pregnancy? What are my options for if I need an abortion?
I had a MA at 7 weeks and everything went well
I had cramping, bleeding and passed out clots on the first day. Had some pains for 3 days at a specific time but it stopped and the bleeding slowed down significantly for weeks. it stopped for 2 days in week 2 then spotting started again and last night I passed out a tissue-fleshy clot and had some fresh blood come out then the bleeding stopped but this morning I bled again abit like a second day period
Something came out today. I need help identifying what it is.
I (22f) found out I was pregnant September 16th. I had unprotected sex a few days before my period was due to start (September 5th) so really I didn’t think pregnancy was possible since i’m good at tracking my cycle. I believe my ovulation was delayed since the month of august was very traumatic and stressful for me and my periods do get a little irregular sometimes if i’m stressed. My LMP was august 1st putting me around 7 weeks at the time I took the pills but, ultrasound dated me much earlier along. (Granted I did accidentally visit a crisis center and they are known for making women think they are earlier on than they are.) There was nothing to be seen on the ultrasound only a tiny little dot on the screen.
I ordered the pills from aid access on Sunday September 21st. They arrived wednesday in discreet packaging and did not need a signature for delivery.
Friday night at 9 I took the first pill. I didn’t have spotting but I did have some heavier cramping similar to period cramping.
Saturday night I prepared with a heating pad and tylenol ready and i took the first mifepristone pills under my tongue. Soon after I experienced severe chills but I never got a fever. I did have some diarrhea but no bleeding yet. After my 2nd round of mife I experienced very very light spotting, it would only be there when I wiped. The cramping did ramp up but I would compare it to stomach cramps from bad food or a stomach bug. I took my 3rd round and then went to sleep. The stomach cramps did wake me up a few times but it was very easy to fall right back asleep.
The next morning I had little to no bleeding it would still only be when I wiped. Around 12 pm I did pass a little bit of tissue and then after that bleeding began more heavily with more clots. The bleeding for me lasted about 3 days heavily and then for about a week after.
I would have been due around this time and I absolutely don’t regret my decision. It went so smoothly. After reading horror stories I was absolutely terrified but my experience was honestly very good.
20F, from PH. is MA is work if im 3months delayed? i just got the money now and its illegal in my country to MA. im scared that it will failed because i think its a fetus now and i really want to get rid of it coz im still studying and no one knows im pregnant
I'm in BC and getting a surgical abortion on June 6th. I'm 6 weeks pregnant right now I'm 5'8 and I was 160lbs before I got pregnant now I'm 175 lbs I don't know what to do I feel so fat how do I fix it after? I'm not eating anymore than I usually do
I took mifepristone on Saturday, and then the 8 pills of misoprostol on Sunday. Started bleeding Sunday but didn’t get super heavy until today with lots of blood clots. I’m not completely soaking pads or anything but the bleeding is HEAVY. The clots haven’t been any bigger than a lemon but I have anxiety and am freaking out. Is the heavy bleeding normal especially since it’s day 3?
I had an abortion on April 19th. My experience was very similar to a lot I read. I passed clots and bled for a few days after with the bleeding getting minimal and minimal.
It’s been 4 weeks and 3 days and I just took a test and it shows positive. I’m in Texas so I can’t just go to my healthcare provider, the free places they do have here are all pro life centers which makes me uncomfortable to go.
However, I was sure I passed the pregnancy and I don’t feel pregnant. From what I’ve read, after 4 weeks the pregnancy hormone should be clear, so I’m freaking out a bit…. Any advise?
Honestly I just feel so alone at the moment but I know I shouldn’t as there are probably thousands of women in my boat right now. Found out I was pregnant last week and the instant thought was “get an abortion” almost like a reflex. My circle (mum and partner) have been extremely supportive, attentive to me but at the same time I just feel so lost to the point I can’t even face going into work. If anyone has been in a similar situation I would really appreciate what made the sinking feeling go away?
Hey i need to know if it’s normal to light period on the 1st period after an abortion mine was now 5weeks and i feel cramps nausea and extremely mood swings i was crying literally every day, i feel also weird i know this chapter is already over and thats intense and very very stressful
I abort 5 weeks and some days in my pregnancy all my symptoms are gone and that’s was little painful
So I just had surgery last night cause I went to the er complaining of intense thinking it was because it was my first period after the abortion.
I feel like abortion process went well cause I bled and passed clots for 6 days and I experienced the regular cramps and nausea afterwards but they faded away.
Problem was that 2 weeks later on what I assumed was my ovulation time, I experienced some chronic pain, I even vomited out every ibuprofen I took but I was scared to go to the hospital due to lack of insurance and I already had another hospital bill to pay out of pocket from a couple weeks back. Let me describe the pain from the first time to give you context. I went to the toilet as I regularly do when I wake up and as soon as I sat down, I felt a stabbing pain on my left abdominal side and pressure on my vagina and butt.
I first thought I was constipated but the pain had me sweating, next time I know I’m vomiting out everything I had in my stomach but it didn’t stop so I tried drinking water but now I was vomiting bile and water. Since I was burning up, I decided to crawl to the shower to cool down (which it helped) but the pain was so severe I started pulling out my extensions and squatted in my bathtub cause I was convinced I’m giving bath but there was no blood, just pressure. I tried eating something before taking ibuprofen but I vomited it all out 20 minutes later. I still didn’t go to the hospital but the pain eventually faded as the day went and night came. So I definitely ignored it, wrong decision ever.
Fast forward 2 weeks later, as I turn to my left while sleeping the pain came back but this time I said I’m not toughening it up. Went to the er, they gave me morphine and that shit wasn’t helping anything. Doctor ordered an ultrasound to check my abdomen, they took blood tests and a pee sample. My blood pressure dropped to 60/34 with my pulse at 124. Next thing you know a whole team of nurses were surrounding me and pocking on me to start a blood transfusion and add a 2nd bag of saline but my veins were almost nonexistent. In the midst of all this chaos, the doctor came and told me that I was 11 weeks pregnant but the embryo was dead and had ruptured my fallopian tube causing internal bleeding inside and outside my uterus and they have to rush me to a hospital with an operation room for surgery. My body started involuntarily shaking bro 😭 wtf you mean I’m 11 weeks pregnant but I live in a state where abortion is illegal so I didn’t say anything.
Can’t even remember passing out for the surgery. The gyno ended up explaining that I’ve been bleeding for weeks (remembering the first time I experienced the cramps). They made an incision on my left and on my belly button for the removal of the fallopian tube but had to make a big incision above my vagina area and feel me up with co2 cause there was so much blood, they couldn’t even see my organs well.
The doctor said I had so much scarring inside my uterus and she didn’t have a clear reason why the embryo had stopped growing or moving but I knew why.
Just thought I’d share my experience in case anyone ever through what I did
I think the "right thing" to do is to tell him but idk how right that really is
We've talked about It before and we both agreed that if i got pregnant any time soon i should get an abortion. He says his biggest dream is to be a father but his worst nightmare is to be a teen dad (we're both 17), we had a pregnancy scare before and he couldnt even sleep properly for weeks, he was always stressed out and even cried out of fear.
He's got his university entrance exam in around two weeks and i dont wanna f*ck It up for him, but i also dont wanna wait that much to tell him and proceed with abortion because
-hes got a trip a couple days after so it's a whole week trying to asimilate It without each other
-im bearly a few weeks pregnant and i HATE It, cant imagine how hard it will be by then)
-the more i wait, the more physical changes even after terminating
-its gonna be so suspicious
our whole relationship is based of trust, but on the other hand i feel like id just be putting unnecesary stress on him. idk what to do
I got a medical abortion on saturday and passed the foetus on sunday. I was nearly 14 weeks pregnant. I woke up this morning with really really painful breasts. Usually when this happens i try to massage them slightly to ease some pain, and instead of easing anything, milk starting dripping from my nipples! I was so confused because I hadn’t heard this from anyone before, and the hospital didn’t tell me. Has anyone else experienced this, and maybe just as shocked as I was?
I am in my early 20s and I am 6 weeks pregnant. I am getting an abortion tomorrow through the pill and I was wondering if anybody had any advice for me. Me and my boyfriend broke up, so I dont have him, and none of my friends know, only my mom. I have a friend visiting from out of town and I have to hide it from her so that makes me nervous and I dont know how I am going to do that. I am also worried because I struggle with mental health issues very bad. I have gotten a lot better but I am worried this is going to set me back and send me into a bad depressive episode. I have conflicting feelings because I know I cant keep the baby but its still sad. I am already feeling depressed, but I dont want this to be a trauma that I cant get over for the rest of my life. How have you maintained your wellbeing after the abortion? Last thing - I have had really bad nausea during this pregnancy, for anyone that had really bad sickness, how long did it last after the abortion? Did the pregnancy hormones affect you for a long time after? Overall, I just want to know if anyone has specific tips for mentally and physically preparing me for the abortion.
I had gotten a medical abortion about a month or so ago I honestly don’t remember the exact date. During and after I had passed the abortion I did feel relief, this was a mutual decision my partner and I had made, it took us about 2.5 weeks to come to a final decision. However after that initial wave of relief that I can figure out my career path, get our own place, reliable transport for both of us, the fear that I’m in a state with no family and if I become a single parent imma be alone, I think I regret my abortion. I should’ve put more detail, I’m 22F and he’s 27M, we live with his exs father and brother (weird situation Ik) who treat me with nothing but kindness and were static to find out I was pregnant, and I’ve moved across the country from all family about 2 years ago. When it came to the decision I was scared and fearful of putting my baby into an anything less than perfect life, but I miss em everyday, EVERYDAY. There’s not been one hour of one day for the past 3 weeks where I didn’t miss my baby. Anytime I see someone pregnant or even see a newborn in a show or movie I get emotional, it should’ve been me but I was too scared, even though ik it was the best choice for us.
