If you experience severe bleeding, intense abdominal pain, or other concerning symptoms after taking misoprostol, seek immediate medical attention. Call your local emergency services (911 in the US, 999 in the UK, etc.) or go to the nearest hospital.
Local Resources
Many areas offer confidential support services for individuals facing unplanned pregnancies. Contact your local Planned Parenthood or a similar organization for information on reproductive health services and support networks. Their websites typically include contact details and hours of operation.
National Hotlines
Consider calling a national helpline for confidential support. The National Sexual Assault Hotline in the US (800-656-HOPE) offers crisis support and resources, while other countries have similar services. A quick online search for “[your country] sexual assault hotline” will yield relevant results.
Online Resources
Reputable online resources can provide additional information about medication safety and post-abortion care. Always verify the credibility of a website before relying on its information. Look for sites affiliated with known medical organizations or universities.
