http://www.fwhc.org/abortion/medical-ab.htm The above is an article about RU486...a medical abortion caused by taking doses of two different medications in PILL form that does not require the invasive traditional surgical abortion procedure. @163...I agreed with all you said until I got to the no abortion pill part. The above link demonstrates that there is in fact a combination of PILLS that cause an abortion. They can be prescribed by a gyno or OBGYN. To the OP...please stop having sex until you educate yourself on birth control and your own body. You can have some spotting or breakthrough bleeding during pregnancy, implantation bleeding should only last the first week or two after conception after that it's spotting that can have many different causes, you cannot give yourself an abortion with heavy excercise...yes heavy excercise can sometimes cause miscarriage but it is in no way a reliable or safe way to end a pregnancy. False positives can happen but are rare. They are NOT caused by the birth control hormones in the pill or shot. They can be caused by ovarian cysts, and for older women who are actively trying to get pregnant can be caused by certain fertility drugs. Please go to the doctor and confirm if you are pregnant or not. Keep your options open, adoption and abortion are both perfectly feasible options. I personally don't agree with abortion and would never have one but I'm not going to sit here and tell you "abortion is murder" or anything like that. It is YOUR CHOICE. I just feel bad for you that you're going to have to grow up waaaay too fast and make decisions for yourself/your child that no person as young as you should have to make.

There is such thing as an abortion pill, but personally I think it sounds worse than traditional procedures.

163, yeah there is an "abortion pill". I knew someone who had to take it because she was too far along to get an actual abortion. I could never do that, though - taking a pill knowing that it's killing something inside of you that you created.

#176... Yeah, actually I know about the "medical" abortions, but I was thinking they weren't in pill form for some reason, and most people erroneously refer to Plan B as an abortion pill, even though it does NOT produce an abortion. And the person who mentioned the abortion pill sounded like he (or she) was one of those obnoxious extremist Bible-thumping anti-choice people, with the cheeky tone the was written in. You're right though, there technically is an "abortion pill" (or pills). Most people don't choose them though, it sounds scary as all hell. I really hope the OP has gone to a doctor by now, instead of listening to all these people telling her it's impossible to bleed when you're pregnant, or it's impossible to get a false reading on a home test. *sigh* Oh and #197, the pill is still a "real" abortion. It's called medical (home), versus the clinical kind where you go into the office.

Umm what's wrong with not waiting to see if she got her period? The sooner she finds out, the better prenatal care she can get, or the sooner she can get an abortion, whichever she chooses. And another thing you ignorant people don't understand is the fact that contraception is NEVER 100%, so just because she got pregnant doesn't mean she wasn't using something.

Plan B is NOT the abortion pill!! It can be taken within 72 hours to PREVENT pregnancy but will NOT end a pregnancy that has already occured. Plan B is a preventative measure If you're already pregnant the "abortion pill" is a 2 medication combination referred to as RU486 that will end an already confirmed pregnancy but only up to a certain time I believe it is before 11 weeks gestation but I could be wrong about the time frame.
