Without having to go to a clinic for treatment, our service provides a secure and legitimate means of terminating a pregnancy at a very early gestational age. You will receive a telephone consultation as well as a comprehensive medical evaluation with a qualified nurse or midwife who will determine whether or not you are a good candidate for treatment. In the event that the therapy is appropriate and risk-free, we will either arrange for you to get abortion pills in the mail a few days later or schedule you for an alternate treatment in the clinic. Before therapy can begin, it may first be necessary to have a scan or one of the other in-clinic examinations.
Before beginning your treatment, please get in touch with us and let us know if anything about your current medical status has changed since your consultation and medical evaluation.
Over the course of your telephone consultation, we will discuss any potential adverse effects or problems that may arise as a result of your therapy.
All individuals who have a medical abortion report feeling discomfort or cramping in the lower abdomen as well as bleeding from the cervix. In some circumstances, the level of pain is sufficient to warrant the use of powerful analgesics (like codeine). The majority of misoprostol-induced abortions are finished within four hours, however the process may take longer for certain women. Even after the abortion is over, some women have spotting or light bleeding in the uterine cavity until their next menstrual period.
After your telephone appointment, you will get your treatment package directly from the pharmacy somewhere between one and three days later (sometimes longer with Bank Holidays). Even if your box is held up in the mail for a few more days, you should continue to take the pills in accordance with the instructions as soon as they become available to you. The package is unmarked and gives no hint as to what may be inside; it will be traced but no one will be required to sign for it.
Mifepristone and misoprostol are the two medications that are required to be taken in order to use the abortion pill.
Mifepristone, the first medication, is the one that really stops the pregnancy. It does this by inhibiting the action of the hormone progesterone. In the absence of progesterone, the lining of the uterus deteriorates, which makes it impossible for the pregnancy to continue.
Misoprostol, the second medication, causes the womb to contract, which results in cramping, bleeding, and the loss of the pregnancy in a manner that is similar to that of a miscarriage.
It is essential that you be aware of the potential hazards to the developing baby in the event that you change your mind about continuing the pregnancy at any stage after beginning treatment with the drugs. Both mifepristone and misoprostol have been shown to induce spontaneous abortions, with misoprostol being the more likely culprit.
It is critical that you time the administration of your medicine correctly. You will be required to come into the clinic in order to take your prescriptions if you are 10 weeks pregnant or further advanced in your pregnancy.
First, you will dilute the first medication (mifepristone) with water and then consume it.
Step 2: After an interval of one to two days, you will administer the second medication (misoprostol)
Step 3: Once three to four hours have passed since the first dosage of misoprostol, you will administer a second dose.
After that, you will be able to end the pregnancy comfortably at home.
Telehealth refers to health care that you may get while physically apart from your health care provider.
It may seem strange, but just as you may obtain many other types of health care via telehealth, you can also get abortion treatment through telemedicine. Abortion treatment delivered through telehealth is safe and effective.
