NEW YORK, Jan. 26 (UPI) -- A new study from Planned Parenthood doctors and a doctor from outside the organization finds medication abortion is safe and effective.
The study uses data from 13,000 women who had a medication abortion at Planned Parenthood Los Angeles health centers over a five-year period. The researchers found the drug is 97.7 percent effective, and only .01 percent who used it experienced an infection requiring hospitalization.
