Question: What are the most natural methods of abortion?

Dear Renamae,
Thank you for your question about natural methods of abortion and herbal abortion.  Our website has a page devoted to natural abortion that I think you will find helpful.  The best website for the specific herbal regiment to use is sisterzeus.com.

 
There is significant misunderstanding about “natural” methods of abortion.  In my opinion, the Aspiration Procedure is the best abortion method because it is simple and nearly 100% effective, even though it is a medical procedure and it needs to be done by a medical professional.  The Aspiration Procedure takes a few minutes.  The doctor inserts a thin straw or cannula through the natural opening of the cervix and attaches a handheld syringe.  Gentle pressure is applied, and the contents of the uterus are expelled without any scraping, electric suction or general sedation.  It is considered nonsurgical because it does not interrupt the cervix of the wall of the uterus.  It simply removes the endometrial lining, which sheds normally with the monthly period.  Unfortunately it can be difficult to find a doctor who offers Aspiration Procedure.  If you can get to New York City, our offices specialize in this approach. 
 
I am also an advocate of the abortion pill, over herbal abortion.  The abortion pill is almost 99% effective whereas herbal abortion is about 50% effective.  The medications used in the abortion pill are safe and are only in the system for days. 
 
I see many women who have tried herbs and they have failed.  They come to me needing to complete the abortion.  They report to me that they experienced significant pain and cramping.  Some even have heavy bleeding but still do not pass the pregnancy.
 
In my experience, making the decision is hard enough.  I have seen women be traumatized by the experience of trying to end it and having that fail.  They tend to blame themselves for the decision.  It is hard to have to go through that decision a second time. 
 
I hope this is helpful to you,
Doctor Joan
