Understanding the Abortion Pill in Florida

As state abortion laws are becoming more restrictive across the United States, chemical abortions are on the rise. In fact, chemical abortions make up 70% of all abortions in our country. According to the Charlotte Lozier Institute, in Florida, 58% of abortions are chemical abortions. In 2021, nearly 80,000 abortions were performed in Florida, and of the 79,817 abortions 46,433 of them were chemical.

Also known as medical abortions or the abortion pill, chemical abortions intentionally cause an embryo to detach from the uterus and be miscarried. According to Gulf Coast FL Women’s Clinic, you may consider chemical abortion at 10 weeks or less of pregnancy. While Planned Parenthood states that the abortion pill is “a safe and effective way to end a pregnancy,” we at Community Pregnancy Clinics help you understand the risks to having a chemical abortion and the treatment for reversing the effects of the first abortion pill.


If taken within 72 hours of taking the first abortion pill, the Abortion Pill Reversal halts and reverses the effects of the chemical abortion. Our nurses will connect you with the Abortion Pill Reversal hotline (877.558.0333) or with a person via live chat by visiting the Abortion Pill Reversal website. On the site, an on-call professional will ask you some basic questions to see if a reversal is possible. Afterward, he or she will connect you with a doctor or medical provider in your area to start treatment.

Know the Effects of the Abortion Pill in Naples

The first abortion pill blocks progesterone to the baby, and the second pill starts contractions to expel the baby from a woman’s uterus. When prescribed the Abortion Pill, many women are told they have to complete the abortion by taking the second Abortion Pill. This is not true. It is possible and safe to change your mind and keep your baby. We at Community Pregnancy Clinics understand that an unplanned pregnancy can be scary and difficult, and many women make decisions to abort when they are scared and stressed, however, most women experience more distress because of their abortion.

According to a study performed by Support After Abortion, 6 out of 10 women who have a chemical abortion say is was a traumatic experience for them and experienced physical pain, emotional distress, as well as feelings of isolation during and following the two-pill process. And 82% of women did not know where to go for help afterward. 

While Planned Parenthood claims that taking the abortion pill feels like “having a really heavy, crampy period, and the process is very similar to an early miscarriage,” their website fails to include the numerous other side effects of chemical abortion including nausea, weakness, fever, chills, vomiting, headache, diarrhea, dizziness, emotional grief, trauma, as well as the end of your baby’s life.

Understanding the Abortion Pill Reversal Process in Fort Myers

APR is made up of progesterone which is a natural hormone in a woman’s body that allows her to nurture and sustain a pregnancy. If taken within 72 hours of the first abortion pill, APR will override the halt of progesterone initiated by the first abortion pill and replenish the supply of progesterone which keeps a baby in the womb alive. 

Progesterone and estrogen are the dominant hormones that control a woman’s reproductive cycle, and sufficient levels of both are required to maintain health and pregnancies. According to Fertility Education and Medical Management, progesterone relaxes the uterus and maintains the endometrium where the baby implants in the uterus. If a woman does not have sufficient progesterone levels, she is at risk of miscarriage. While the abortion pill purposely blocks the progesterone in a mother’s bloodstream to her baby, the abortion pill reversal provides her with extra progesterone to help her maintain her uterine lining and keep her baby alive. 

Progesterone is safe to use and is prescribed by doctors to women for a variety of health reasons. According to Mayo Clinic, this hormone can be used to regulate a woman’s menstrual cycle, treat unusual bleeding, and prevent changes in the uterus during menopause.
