At carafem, we’ve seen firsthand how "missed period pills" can help people take control of their reproductive health through a study we participated in with @Gynuity, no confirmation of pregnancy required.

A double dose of the emergency contraceptive ella along with #misoprostol is effective for early abortion, says new study from @Gynuity . @Plancpills msmagazine.com/2025/02/03/abo…

📢 Data from a small study suggest ulipristal acetate plus #misoprotol was effective and safe for early #medicationabortion up to 63 days’ gestation, 💊 but more research is needed. @NEJMEvidence @Gynuity healio.com/news/womens-he…

Estamos muy orgullosas(os) de presentar los resultados de un estudio colaborativo publicado en @NEJMEvidence que evalúa la posibilidad de #ulipristal en lugar de #mifepristona en un régimen combinado con #misoprostol para #abortoconmedicamentos --evidence.nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Induction of labor is an increasingly common intervention but experiences & preferences of induction methods are under-researched. Understanding these perspectives is important to improve the childbirth experience: bit.ly/3MrfECe in @AjogGlobal

👏👏👏Senators in France overwhelmingly approve the inclusion in the Constitution of the "guaranteed freedom" of women "to have recourse to a voluntary termination of pregnancy", paving the way for final adoption of the text in Congress next month.

We applaud Ecuador's Ministry of Health for successfully including mifepristone in its National Essential Medicines List, as well as those who helped make it happen. Map available in Spanish gynuity.org/resources/map-…
