| 2009-10-19 | Jasmin | 9 | 9 | 10 | 10 | Yes | I was not able to give perfect rate for below reasons: 1. She was not able to give the answer for the subject that i took gynera pills. The consequence of that. 2. She was not able to tell me the chances of being pregnant if it's 50-50 or what. Nevertheless, she is very willing to help me if the result will be positive. Thanks a lot Doc and hope to get your to full support in helping me in the future. |

Expertise
I am a family doctor who has provided abortion care for over a decade. I can answer any health or medical related questions about early abortion, including the aspiration procedure, the abortion pill (RU486), or surgical abortion. I run a practice called Early Options, located in New York City: earlyabortionoptions.com. The practice is dedicated to making early abortion part of mainstream medical care. There are other family doctors around the United States who practice a similar approach to early abortion care: see earlyabortion.com. Please do not ask "private" questions so that other women can learn from your experience. Please tell me what country you are from so that I can better help you.
