There have been several deaths associated with the use of abortion pills, because abortion pills can cause severe bleeding with substantial blood loss. When you have a surgical abortion, the procedure will be carried out in a medical facility. If you loose an abnormal amount of blood, it will be noticed immediately and you will receive medical care right away. When you use abortion pills, you are normally sent home and the abortion will therefore not take place in a medical facility; it will take place in your own home. This means that you have to make sure that someone stays with you until you have recuperated and feel okay again. Always ask a close friend or relative to stay with you while you have the abortion. Many deaths have occurred because women have been left alone during the abortion, and when they have started to loose a lot of blood they have believed it to be normal, or been reluctant to seek medical attention since they feared exposure.

1. Procure them from a reputable clinic and follow their guidelines
2. Have someone with you during the abortion that can make sure that you receive prompt medical attention if necessary.
3. Have the abortion in place that is within a reasonable distance form a hospital.
