Abstract
The Swedish experience indicates that the combination of RU 486 and vaginal or intramuscular administration of different prostaglandin analogues such as Cervagem, Sulprostone, and 15- methyl PGF2 alpha is a highly effective and safe non-surgical method to terminate early pregnancy. The combined treatment may also be used during the second trimester. In mid- and late second trimester abortion this procedure represents a simple, non-invasive, highly effective method. There are several possibilities by which RU 486 can be used as a contraceptive. We have shown that post-ovulatory administration of RU 486 will effectively inhibit implantation. If the preliminary results are confirmed, treatment with RU 486 once a month on day LH+2 may be an attractive alternative to present contraceptive technology.
