Medical abortion
2021 Canada
I was so scared when I found out I was pregnant. I’m a student with no job due to the pandemic but I was so relieved when I made the appointment. And even though it was painful, I felt so relieved after. I have no regrets.
My personal experience was far from pleasant. I took the medicine at home and waited in the washroom. It was very painful cramps. This lasted about an hour with vomiting and diahrrea. I was in and out of the shower because I was hot then cold. But the most painful part lasted an hour. Once the diahrrea and vomit stopped, the cramps lessened and I went to bed and put a cold towel over my face (trust me it helps a lot) and fell asleep. I felt so much better when I woke up!

Only my sister and my partner knew about the abortion. They were both very supportive and helped me through it.
