How safe is a medication abortion?
-
Medication abortion is very safe. It is about 4 times safer than aspirin and 14 times safer than continuing a pregnancy. Complications are rare and most are not serious. The most common complication is a continued pregnancy. If the pregnancy continues after taking the abortion pill, you may be able to take more medicine or you will need to have an abortion procedure. Serious risks, such as heavy bleeding and infection, are very rare.
