How Do Abortion Pills Work?
-
Abortion Pills blocks Progesterone which causes the pregnancy to separate from the wall of the Uterus(womb) Which causes the Uterus to contract and thus leads to vaginal bleeding and the pregnancy tissue to be expelled.
-
An Abortion Pill is an anti-progesterone medication. It works by binding (attaching) to the progesterone receptors on the wall of the uterus and promotes loss of the blood vessel supply to the pregnancy and causes the lining of the uterus to shed.
-
Progesterone is necessary to maintain uterine quiescence (prevents uterine contractions). Once progesterone is unable to bind to the uterus, the intrauterine pressure increases and uterine contractions are started.
-
There are local changes to the cervix that allow it to open and become soft. The softening and dilation (opening) is called “cervical priming”.
