Attorney General sues Bay Area crisis pregnancy centers over abortion pill reversal procedure they say restores normal hormone levels, is effective and has been used for years to prevent miscarriag…
California sued Bay Area crisis pregnancy centers Thursday for offering an abortion pill reversal procedure that Attorney General Rob Bonta said is unproven and largely experimental.
“Those who are struggling with the complex decision to get an abortion deserve support and trustworthy guidance — not lies and misinformation,” Bonta said. “We are launching today’s lawsuit to put a stop to their predatory and unlawful behavior.” Abortion pills have become a central front in the nation’s battles over the procedure that erupted anew with the U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson last year overturning a constitutional right to abortion created by the court’s Roe v. Wade decision nearly 50 years earlier.
Medication abortion typically uses a combination of two drugs — mifepristone and misoprostol — taken within 24 to 48 hours of each other to end a pregnancy up to 10 weeks of gestation.
