Ever since mankind has prevailed, man has turned towards nature to solve a number of problems he came across, and nature has served him well. Unwanted and unexpected pregnancies are often gotten rid of by painful, costly and embarrassing surgical operations. What if, there was another way to do this without being going through all that pain and embarrassment? What if, nature has a cure for this problem as well? Yes, indeed it has! Certain natural herbs possess abortifacient properties that may help one to get rid of their undesired pregnancy without any sort of surgery.

Whereas, 41.5% think that these herbs can be harmful for our health, 45.5% considered these herbs as a better option, and 13% of the people had absolutely no idea about it.
