I work in an aboriton clinic, a more private clinic, and I am a healthcare professional

Medical abortion causes GUSHY blood, and you bleed for 9-21 days after a medical abortion.

In general, medical abortion has more bleeding than surgical abortion does, which is typical.

You will crampy very hard for 4-8 hours, and then it will lighten up considerably.

I had opted for the medical procedure because of the privacy it offered. I must say though if you are sensitive to medication be careful. 20 minutes after taking the second set of pills I was so ill I felt like I was going to die. I was throwing up, bleeding heavily, having contractions. It went on for about 8 hours. The second day was mild in comparison but I still did not feel well. Cramping stays for a while and the bleeding is continuous. But the vomiting and nausea seemed to be side effects of the medication itself. *( which is bad for the stomach ,that is why they have you put it in your cheeks to dissolve) Now having gone through this I would have chosen the surgical option instead. Being that sick is more traumatizing then anything I have ever done.

last Friday i had a medical abortion and i still seem to have pain in my lower part of my belly is this normal? im still bleeding and haven't had any clots since that Saturday morning.

and it was sore for about 3 hours , felt like VERY bad cramps just like a period , i passed the pregnacy in about 2 hours, and the pain just dissapeared , maybe i was lucky in that sense.
