Résumé :
|
Women have changed their mind after commencing medical abortion. One published case series detailed a potential method to counter/reverse the abortifacient effect of mifepristone by administering parenteral progesterone in such situations. Progesterone use in early pregnancy is low risk and its application to counter the effects of mifepristone in such circumstances may be clinically beneficial in preserving threatened pregnancy. Further research is required, however, to provide definitive evidence.
