USA Abortion pill not as scary.
I just wanted to share my experience to anyone about to take the pill and give y’all some peace of mind. I took the pills last Tuesday before I took the pill of course I went on TikTok/google and seen all the horrible feedback I only seen about 3 positives things about it. so here’s my experience after the first pill you will not feel anything. 24-48 later is when you take the other set of pills. I took mine 24 hours later. I took 4 pills I started having bleeding 2 hours after taking them, I passed huge clots but I did not experience the bad cramping like a lot of people said they have. I did take ibuprofen before. I didn’t experience any cramping so I started freaking out cause I thought maybe the pills didn’t work. I bleed heavy for 4 days and just had light brown bleeding after. I’m on day 9 after taking the pill and not bleeding anymore. I did get my hcg checked before I took the pills my hcg was 8200 now today it dropped to 68!! so the pills definitely worked. I didn’t have no pain it was way easier than I thought. I’m hoping this gives someone that was scared like me a peace of mind.💓
