The abortion pill is specifically designed to end a life. Because of this it is also very detrimental to the mother. According to the informed consent form from Planned Parenthood, harsh cramping, bleeding and fever is expected. Side effects include extreme bleeding, blood clots in the uterus, uterine infection, allergic reaction and death.
Progesterone is the hormone that is needed to maintain the uterine lining which provides oxygen and nutrients for the baby.[1]
Mifeprex/Mifepristone (RU-486) blocks the action of progesterone. Without it, the baby dies.[2]
24-48 hours later the second pill, Cytotec (or Misoprostol), is taken, causing uterine bleeding (sometimes profuse) and strong contractions to expel the baby.[3]
The mother is told to miscarry at home or a hotel over a toilet. If she were to look closely, she would see her dead child. Even at only 7 weeks, she is likely to see his or her fingers & toes.[4]
