      Abortion & Abortion Pill Reversal

      Can I get an abortion in Tuscaloosa County?

      Abortion in the State of Alabama is only allowed under very rare circumstances. Contact a pregnancy center to discuss your situation and figure out next steps.

      What if I took an abortion pill?

      If you’ve recently taken the first abortion pill, you may be able to reverse your chemical abortion and save your pregnancy. Contact a pregnancy center or contact abortionpillreversal.com or reverseabortionpill.com right now. Time is of the essence.

      What are the chances of reversing my abortion?

      With Abortion Pill Reversal (APR), initial studies suggest that there is a 64%-67% chance of restoring the placenta to full function and going on to deliver a normal, healthy baby. If no action is taken, there is a much smaller chance the child will survive.

      Abortion Pill Reversal Options

      Abortion pill reversal is the medical protocol used to reverse the effects of the first abortion pill.

      A pregnancy center can either administer or refer you for abortion pill reversal.

      About 4,000 healthy babies have been born after using the abortion pill reversal medical protocol in the last several years.

      Note: Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) has been shown to increase the chances of allowing the pregnancy to continue. However, the outcome of your particular reversal attempt cannot be guaranteed.

      Adoption Agencies

      If you’re pregnant and have a desire for your child to be adopted by a loving family, contact one of the following adoption agencies in Tuscaloosa County.
