Hi just to share my experience. Few years back i went for abortion by taking pills at kkh.. so is like before admitted day surgery i need to swallow a pill infront of the doctor/gynea then u can leave the hospital n go home. On the day need to admit in the morning by 6 am at kkh.. nurse gave pills m have breakfast. Later few hours later doctor came n insert pill into vagina. After awhile contraction strt. Cant remember how long it lasts but what i know not gona take so long to subside the pain.
