More than 60% of abortions in the U.S. are medication abortions, meaning a person takes two drugs, often at home, to end a pregnancy.
More than 90% of respondents ranked their pain at least a 4 out of a maximum of 10 , and about half said the pain was more than they had expected.
About 40% said their pain was severe, between an 8 and a 10 on the pain scale.
Medication abortion will not work for an ectopic pregnancy, according to the Food and Drug Administration .
Pain beyond 24 hours after a pregnancy is passed, especially if the person also has a fever or is vomiting, could be a sign of infection.
Putting a heating pad, a hot water bottle or over-the-counter trans-electrical nerve stimulation pads on the lower belly can also help “confuse” nerves.
