Medical abortion, available up to 0 to 70 days days from the start of the last menstrual period, is a procedure administered in a doctor's office. It involves the use of two medications, mifepristone and misoprostol, to halt the development of the pregnancy. Mifepristone, a progesterone receptor modulator, disrupts the action of progesterone in the body. Misoprostol, a prostaglandin, induces muscle contractions in the uterus, relaxes the cervix, and causes the shedding of the endometrium.

Some women opt for medical abortion to avoid surgical procedures, although it may take several days and necessitate a follow-up appointment for completion. In the rare event that a medical abortion fails (one to two percent of cases), a surgical procedure known as a dilation and curettage (D&C) may be required to empty the uterus.

The CARE Program does not currently offer medical abortions. For information on medical abortions, individuals are encouraged to contact Willow Clinic, Everywoman's Health Centre, https://www.abortionclinictoronto.com/products/abortion-pill-bc , or Bagshaw Clinic.

Manual Vacuum Aspiration Abortion (MVA) is a surgical procedure that can be performed up to nine weeks from the first day of the last period, or seven weeks from conception as confirmed by ultrasound. The procedure involves administering mild pain medications and using local anesthesia to numb the cervix. A small tube connected to a syringe is then utilized to empty the uterus. MVA is also considered a safe procedure, typically requiring two visits to the doctor's office.

My medical wishes to wish on a medical star so we all get better medical care in the future:

Stop calling so many things birth control and start calling more things abortions.

[800-dick-pics]

im way more afraid of the long term effects of hormonal birth control+IUDs than i am medical or herbal abortions

like ovulation is actually really important for your long term bone density! so id like to keep that goin yfm??

im glad hormonal bc is out there for other people for health or sex but after i learned my own fertility patterns, practice FAM, and became and herbalist im not worried about pregnacy or pregnacy scares.

FAM/fertility autonomy its freeing bc youre actually DIRECTLY incharge of if or when you actually wanna have a child or not, gives u the power to prevent egg implantion or to go ahead with an abortion, or helps you track your PCOS or transition into menopause, and helps you have body literacy in other areas too!

wish more ppl knew theres other options besides standardized birth control bc if were gonna be honest, all of them are very sucky.... and for me getting nutted in isnt worth that hassle of birth control

[mysongsknowwhatyoudidinthedark]

Okay, here’s my master post on birth control

Opill is an otc birth control. It is progesterone only, so it is safe for people who have migraines with aura and people with a high risk of blood clots. It is not safe for people with a history of breast cancer. You can buy it in 1/3/6 month packs. It’s on Amazon but you can purchase it in stores. If you use a subscription plan for Amazon the first month is cheaper. You can get a 3 month pack for around the price of a 1 month pack if its your first subscription.

Telyrx might or might not ship to your state. They have birth control you might already use + plan b and Ella, which works if you’re at a higher weight. Standard Plan B caps out at 155 pound, Ella works up until 195 pounds. There are several day after pills on Amazon that’s around $15-$16, but I don’t know if it works at a higher weight limit.

Doubling on Plan B is not proven to work. If you do, you should still be fine, but you will have likely feel nauseous and possibly vomit, which could make it not work. You should be good if you vomited two hours or later after taking it. It shouldn’t be too severe.

Plan B can either work up to 3 days or 5 days after your birth control fails. Make sure you read up on what you buy. The ones on Amazon are all 3 day pills.

PlanCPills.org has a list of sites where you can purchase abortion pills. They’re on sale now for obvious reasons. Some are as low as $30. For abortion pill pack for that works up until 12 weeks is not that bad.

The specific website I used is medside24.com. These websites typically require a valid ID. Get one ASAP. Medside24.com had issues with their payment system when I used them today, but it worked out, so please don’t get too stressed. They also will not reship your order if your address is wrong, so make sure your address is right.

Plan B general lasts for four years, Plan C lasts two years because misoprostol lasts two years, but mifespristone lasts 5 years, bc is whatever it is on the package. Keep them away from extreme temperatures as they are very sensitive to temperature changes. Direct sunlight can also damage birth control, Plan B, and Plan C.

The copper IUD can be used with hormonal birth control. Do not use two hormonal birth control types together. There will be side effects in a similar manner to doubling up on Plan B.

You can take Plan B while on birth control but it could cause side effects.

Testosterone is not birth control. Estrogen can make a transfem sterile, but it is not birth control.

The mini pill, also known as a progesterone only pill, has to be taken at the same time each day for maximum efficiency. You have a 3 hour window to take it or else it’ll count as skipping a day and you will be unprotected if you have sex. The Opill counts as a mini pill, so please be aware of that. There is no skip week with progesterone only birth control. You can take the pills in any order, as each pill contains the same amount of medicine.

Birth control containing estrogen and progesterone has a more lenient window. You can take two in one day if you’ve missed one day, but you will be less protected than normal. If you missed two or more, take the most recent pill that you’ve missed and continue taking it as normal. You have to throw out the missed pills. You must take these pills in order because they may contain different amounts of hormones. You can skip the placebo week on estrogen birth control and move on to the next pack.

Feel free to add anything I’ve missed.

[partycityistotallyofficailguy]

no you guys don’t understand listen up bc. The entire reason we even got to this era where most of these options are even considered IN THE ELECTION IS BECAUSE OF ACTIVISM. Activism alone is the reason we managed to get this far and it may not seem like a lot but we have new vaccines. We have a literal PILL for abortion when it used to be surgical abortion 7 weeks in as the only option. There’s so much we can do through activism. Don’t give in to defeatism

I (20f) have been with my boyfriend (21m) for about a month and things are going really well. He is seriously the sweetest kindest dude I've ever met it's unreal. The problem is I'm pregnant. Yeah apparently the condom we used that first time was like. super fucking expired and I swear on my life I didn't realize that, honest to god I didn't plan this. So I told him and I was fully prepared to yeet it and also give up on yet another relationship but he was actually really chill about it and we ended up deciding to keep it. Once again, I cannot stress enough, I DID NOT PLAN TO GET PREGNANT. This important because yesterday my brother (24m) ran into his ex (25m) who apparently said some super passive-aggressive shit insinuating that I'm baby-trapping my boyfriend (you gotta believe me on this it was an accident). Anyway my brother punched him in the face and we had to pick him up from the hospital (the girl he's currently trying to fuck (22f) gave him a ride then called me) then he went off on some shit about how I'm a "whore" and "turning into our mom (42f)" and this is all relevant because like a year ago when he was still with his ex he totally forgot to pick me up from this basement show I was at bc he was at ex's place getting railed ig and I had to ask the band for a ride and learn the hard way what kind of van The Slime Mold Snorters drive and all he had to say for himself was "learn to drive bitch" and since I remembered his ex mentioning something about having a ton of self-esteem issues related to HIS older brother (28m) I looked him up and lied to him about being on the pill and that time I did end up aborting and also my brother and his ex both ended up in the country jail for a few months. So back to yesterday, it turned into this huge fight and now I'm staying at my boyfriend's house and I'm wondering should I let him in on the Backstory? Or will that scare him off? Cannot stress this enough, I didn't mean to get pregnant this time.

There's a wider societal issue that affects pretty much everyone and feeds into transphobia and it's the socially conditioned fear and demonization of certain bodily changes.

Originally, my thinking was that it's body changes in general but then I realized that actually, depending on your environment and how you were socialized, you might fear and desire different ways one's body can change. My partner is a cis man and was socialized as one and he sees greying hair as a good thing bc he feels like it'll make him look hotter and probably also in big part bc as a man you gain social status as you look older, you get taken more seriously in a way that elder women used to as well but now less and less.

Depending on how you've been socialized and what you've internalized from it, you might be terrified of gaining muscle but eager to lose weight. You might be terrified of gaining fat in certain areas (belly, arms) but not others (chest, butt).

The inverse of that is not wanting to be skinny/scrawny and wanting to gain lots of muscle.

If there was a pill that made all your body hair disappear (but not on your head) without major side effects, most women would be all over it. That's not a body change they would fear. But most ppl are terrified of losing the hair on their head.

We fear body changes that we are told from society are scary so much, we might never consider them on our own unless we see people go through them and be fine or even choose to go through them willingly and find joy in the results.

Most teenagers might find puberty scary and confusing, but they still want to go through it. They want the body changes it brings and if they don't start going through puberty at the same time as their peers, that's a problem for them.

But there are some body changes some will never be comfortable with on an individual level. I'll never be comfortable going through pregnancy and some ppl would never choose to go through having an abortion. Some ppl aren't comfortable with having any tattoos and some would hate not having any.

If we accept this about humanity, this diversity of desires and preferences for our own bodies and how we would like to shape them, accepting trans people is a no-brainer.

We have to accept that other people will make decisions about their own bodies that we might not.

We have to accept that there's always a social element to our choices. Someone who has lots of friends go through pregnancy and having kids at the same time might be more inclined to want it themselves. Maybe if all their friends were childfree, they wouldn't have made that decision at that time, or maybe they would've anyway, we can't know for sure. Just like a trans person with lots of friends who have chosen to get a certain surgery might be more inclined to get it themselves.

If we accept that the first example isn't a reason to gatekeep medical care, then we have to accept that the latter isn't either.

So my point is ok fine, you say that there's a "social contagion" that contributes to more ppl being trans and wanting gender affirming medical care...what about it?

Explain to my why it should be treated differently (by law & medicine) than having children bc of family expectations or getting hair transplant surgery bc you're insecure about your balding head or losing weight or gaining muscle due to societal pressures to look a certain way or getting a tummy tuck after pregnancy or any other choice ppl may make about their own bodies.

At the end of the day, all we can do is work on building societies that are more accepting of bodies in all their natural and unnatural diversity, and even if we ever achieve that fully, we will never have a way of truly knowing which choices are less or more valid than others, we'll just have to trust people to know themselves.

Anyone wanna my 2 cents on Jade Shadows?

Spoilers bellow frens ;3

So, right off the bat (before I put my personal personal thoughts out there), we need to acknowledge the criticism and outright discomfort this quest had.

Some of the criticism this quest got is something I can agree with. Specifically; Jade Shadow's needed more time. 100%. Let them cook, or more importantly, let the story cook and maybe even burn a bit to give us some crispy, smokin hot parts.

The little footnote at the end of the quest saying we have 'more questions than answers'? We get it, you're self-conscious, but that doesn't give you an excuse for not giving me Stalker. PERIOD, BITCH.

Jest aside, srsly, we needed to know more about Jade, Stalker, what happened to them, baby Orion (Halo possessed me in that moment, iykyk), etc. People needed to get invested in the characters, especially because this is a quest so close to being like Sacrifice on its level of storytelling...

Had it been able to have just 30+ minutes longer.

Onto the 2nd part of the criticism, birthing sim:

I'll be honest, as someone who was thinking of even going into being a midwifery/allied health, it didn't freak me out as much as it did others. But that's just one side of it. The other is how people say Jade's agency was ignored.

I'll be honest, this is just wrong. It's not media illiteracy by any means, but rather pure ignorance. Why?

Because her agency is declared.

When?

"... you're going to be a father." OH, and the fact she literally wanted the baby. There are plenty of people who can explain it better than that, and whilst I acknowledge people may feel this way, this was, in fact, not what happened.

Also, this quest is not pro-life, nor is it anything related to that. If it was, I assure you, you would have a majority of the fan base up and walk. Take a chill pill. If you want to attack something for being pro-life, go help out at an abortion clinic with crowd control or smth. Because once you see that, you'll understand just how wrong you are.

It's not subtle.

It's not in between the lines.

It doesn't exist.

The end. Period. Fullstop.

The criticism is fair, but going so far as to say those are the undertones is just not on. Not only are you lying about something, but you are also disrespecting the very real women whom have had their agency denied in one way or another.

Now, that's not the only criticism about it, but those are just a few things you may see floating on tumblr. Again, both are ok and fair. But when you start to spread lies or ignore what actually happened, you're part of the problem, not the solution.

Now, onto the fun stuff!

Imo, aside from what was stated before, the quest was actually pretty fun and interesting. The pair make an interesting concept, especially now with the lil fugly bean, which has stolen a place in my cold, brainrotted heart. I think I like the Corpus Cap the most- pls marry me, pls. Oh, an Hunhow? Let me hug him. Let me give him a home on my ships. Let me tell him he can be my bestie!!!

Back to Stalker, though, I really hope we see more of him, especially now he's git a VA.

Speaking of, homie didn't get to speak often, but God did it hit home when he did. You can feel how desperate he is, then when he gets his answers, how lost he is. Finally, resolution and love ehen he names his lil kid at the end.

Music was on point, too. I can't listen to it tho bc Ik ima be sobbing lol. It was so beautiful!!!!!!!

Lorewise, however, I have so many fucking questions, but in the funny haha/good way.

Was jade pregnant b4 being a wf? If not, Stalker...

Why was their relationship shamed upon? Was Jade a Dax and him, well, him? Or was it because they weren't married? What was it that made the Orokin make em into Warframes? Also, Ballas, man, we know your hypocritical ass is in this shit too.

Also, Umbra and Helminth are confirmed to roam around the Orbiter, and vc Umbra is my main, this is a personal achievement. Now let us see it happen, and I'll be DE's 4 life.

But seriously, TL;DR:

Jade Shadow's was a good quest, it just needed to cook slightly longer. And, until we get more Umbra x Stalker from DE (bros b4 all), I'll be on AO3 in 3 (maybe 4) tags.

See in the next Stalker stan post :)

I really hate how often neo ra/df/ems will go on and on about how trans fem's transitions are waaaaaay more difficult and they're waaaaaay less likely to pass, but if a trans masc dared to make any similar comparisons, they'd be fucking crucified.

There are a lot of feelings I have around sex-based discrimination and the difficulties of a masculinizing transition. On one hand, I don't think comparing struggles like that is useful (i.e. trans women have harder transitions).

On the other hand, I feel like the reality of the situation is actually quite the opposite for many people (everyone acknowledges that testosterone makes your voice drop and you grow hair, but nobody seems to want to acknowledge hysterectomy vs orchi, voice training is still often needed, electrolysis for phallo, the fact that bottom surgery is usually multi-staged [even metoidioplasty is sometimes 2 stages] with a lot of moving parts and far worse scarring, top surgery is almost a necessity for passing whereas not every trans fem wants top surgery + scars are easier to hide, face masculinization is far less common w/ fewer options, puberty begins earlier in perisex people AFAB and puberty blockers don't always allow for full height to be achieved bc they don't typically allow you to start testosterone until you're about 15 even IF you were a "classic" trans-since-3-years-old kinda case, the extreme body horror that is accidental pregnancy and abortion and menstruation when that's dysphoric vs not being able to carry a pregnancy just feels like an insulting comparison sometimes and I've had multiple trans women call me inconsiderate for expressing horror at getting my bodily rights taken away bc "that triggers my dysphoria", testosterone is a scheduled substance and has more difficult administration methods than simply a pill, etc.)

And so I bite my tongue and try to be the better person, because stooping to that low doesn't help anything. But at the same time it's so extremely frustrating to be told that you "have it better" when, considering the facts, it REALLY feels like the opposite. There's this level of bitterness around that that I am DESPERATELY trying to resolve within myself. I have a therapist. I know it's projection. I'm working on my own bullshit. But please tell me I'm not alone in feeling this way? I just wish they'd stop with that rhetoric and realize just how difficult the average trans masc transition truly is

yeah it's really frustrating for ppl to present Trans Women's Experiences and Trans Men's Experiences as diametrically opposed, with one experience being Eternal Pain And Inescapable Suffering and the other being Barely A Blip On The Life Radar. and while i understand it's coming from a place of pain, i've also experienced a lot of trans women shutting me down when i try to talk about how abortion rights affect me. back when i was first dipping my toe into trans spaces, i was friends with a trans woman who told me it was transmisogynistic of me to want to transition because "trans women would kill to have been born in your body." and while it absolutely comes from a different place than when cis men try to assert control over me and there's not the same power dynamic, it's still a complete stranger feeling entitled to tell me what to do with my body because of the sex i was assigned at birth. it's frustrating to have people i'm supposed to be in community with play into the same sexist bullshit that other people, regardless of gender, have been holding over my head my whole life, feeling like they own my body bc women and ppl who are forcibly assigned the role of women in society are seen as public property. our bodies aren't our own. everyone feels entitled to comment on them and touch them and make decisions about them. and it sucks when it comes from other people who should understand how that feels.

and like. obviously this idea that trans men's transition is so much easier than trans women's is unhelpful bc 1. there is no one particular way for trans men to transition, 2. not everyone who transitions in the way typically associated with trans men is a trans man, 3. it doesn't take into account how disability, race, ethnicity, etc. play into people's experiences before, during, and after transition, and 4. it's just not a fucking competition????? the fact that a disabled black trans man is going to be more systemically oppressed in society than a wealthy white trans woman doesn't mean trans men as a category are Objectively More Oppressed than trans women. bc gender is like. the worst possible way to try to gauge a group's place within the system. bc at this point, gender is not the most powerful system, race is. and i feel like a fuck ton of people really do not recognize that.

another thing that has bugged me for as long as i've been in trans spaces is this bizarre attitude that trans women are doomed to this miserable life of clockability and will never be able to pass as cis women thus they must accept that their life will be nothing but pain and suffering. and that's just very much not true! i know plenty of trans women who "pass" or who are happy with their bodies, who have jobs they love and friends and family who love them, who have a community that supports and celebrates them. and it has just always rubbed me the wrong way that people think they're helping trans women by presenting their existence as Inevitably Miserable when all it does is terrify closeted trans girls who think they're better off never coming out or transitioning, or better off dying. like. we have to understand that these narratives we create, the idea of the perpetually suffering trans woman and the lonely isolated trans man, are absolutely driving people to suicidal ideation. and if we give a shit about trans people, we should be changing these narratives.

Art Student's First Aggressively Political Piece lol - we were assigned to make a collage that is both personally and politically meaningful, so i chose to make a piece about transmascs being left out of conversations on reproductive justice - i chose the quote (as a disabled artist) because i first heard it in terms of disability activism, but i feel it applies very strongly here as well. in case it's hard to make out or you're not sure what any of the images are, i put a thorough description under the read more!

clockwise from the upper left, the images are:

the caterpillar, chrysalis, and adult form of the pipevine swallowtail butterfly (representing transformation)

forget-me-nots

a diagram of the uterus and ovaries

pennyroyal flowers (pennyroyal being a traditional and extremely toxic abortifacient)

a vial of injectable testosterone cypionate (the HRT i'm on) and the molecular structure of it

a violet (bc I Personally am a lesbian as well as transmasc)

more forget-me-nots and violets

the medications in the bottom left are the birth control pill i'm on, plan B emergency contraceptive, and a combination pack of misoprostol and mifeprestone (used to induce abortion)

the background is tissue paper in shades of blue and purple (masculinity and lesbianism) glued to a black-painted wood panel, and in the middle is the nonbinary-inclusive trans symbol surrounded by two banners reading "nothing about us without us"

[killezramiller]

Posting this for reference bc I found out recently that you can order abortion pills online if you can't access a clinic in America and I'm also linking directories to abortion providers in Canada (alt) and the US and because it's personally relevant, if you happen to be a Canadian who's been denied an abortion by a practitioner, here is a list of provincial medical colleges so you can report them.

have to get this out of my head bcs its driving me crazy

so that woman in georgia who died bcs doctors wouldnt intervene with her miscarriage that killed her

right wingers are claiming (and i have no idea if this is true but it doesnt matter for the sake of this post) that she actually took an abortion pill from one of those online abortion pill websites and Thats what killed her, not the abortion ban, so its disingenious to use her as an example of abortion bans killing people

so like 2 things

1) it has been our argument the literaly entire time that if u ban abortions, people dont stop getting abortions, they just become more dangerous. if you think the abortion pill was So dangerous, it killed her, its not safe for people to be getting these pills online then like. abortions from real doctors with appiontments and follow ups needs to be accessible then? this is our entire point?

2) so lets say the abortion pill initiated the miscarriage that killed her right. my understanding is she went to a doctor for help and was refused bcs they felt like intervening went against georgias abortion laws right. that literally still means it is the abortion law that killed her???

if there is a law preventing doctors from treating tetanus. and i cut my hand open with a rusty knife and get tetanus. and then i go to the doctor and im like hi i have tetanus im dying please treat me and they refuse and i die? it is the law that killed me.

whether or not she took an abortion pill is so literally irrelevant i feel insane like i had to get this out bcs its all over my twitter bcs elon musk keeps showing me jack posobiec on my feed and im going crazy

CW: drugs, pregnancy

The holidays were over and I had to go back to work. Today was my first day in the new office. New people, new challenges. That’s why I was so nervous. 😰I expected the worst. I always had bad luck with these annoying department changes. I only liked it in the social office, where I had nice work mates and also working with them and helping other people made me happy. And that’s exactly where I wanted to go back, after I finished the remaining 2 years of my training.

I was glad that I didn’t have to go back to that asylum, where I worked before. This was really one of the worst offices I’ve ever worked in.

Later that day, I will study with Dilek for our next big exam. That's what we planned but... well, let's see. N. accompanied me to my new office in the morning.  I was so scared that someone had to take me there. Not just because of my new job! What happend 6 months ago... started to torture me again. I guess that's bcs I stopped taking my antidepressants. I am pregnant. Every drug, every pill I take (in addition to that drug substitute) ..... can cause risks for my Baby. That’s what my Mom's gynecologist said to me. Her doctor did not examine me. He only briefly informed me about the options, if I don’t want a pregnancy. And he also made me an appointment for an abortion. I wanted that.😞This was 2 days ago, I wasn’t sure what to do? But yesterday my other doctor, Daniel’s doc, who prescribes me my drugs, told me I could keep my Baby. And this doctor, I could tell by his face, how happy he was for me, because I was so happy about that good news. He really enlightened and informed me well! Our conversation lasted almost 40 minutes. This doctor wanted to help me and my Baby. I could see and feel that. So for now, I decided to trust his opinion.

Nico tried to calm me down and encouraged me about my new job. I would have liked to take N. with me as support. I told him, if I had magic powers, I’d shrink him, so he could fit in my bag, to accompany me without anyone noticing anything. Like.... a tiny, hidden helper doing my job for me. 🤣 ... Nico said, "But you’re not alone! You actually have someone tiny with you." Aw, this was so cute. 🩵 ... Knowing that I wasn’t alone, really helped me that day.

I’m finally a college student bc I’m helping my best friend find abortion pills #girl

[firespirited]

Period poll : would you be ok with periods without the horrors?

Most replies : no because my periods have the horrors

Pretty sure the reading comprehension online means you have to say:

Would you be ok with a regular and predictable (every 28 days) light flow 4 day max period with no cramps, no blood rushes, no migraines, no pms, no pmdd, no acne bloom, no anemia, no period poops and not expensive supplies.

Personally i'd have edited the original post to add ways you can change or stop your periods otc or by prescription.

Pro tip: you can just not stop taking your regular BC pill, the 'periods' are hormonal withdrawal and only there because the church lobbied for keeping things "natural" and some women need the advance warning if they're pregnant or not (for abortion/retrying to get pregnant on limited ovulation days) .
