Foods that can cause or help in abortion

Down the years we have heard from our grandmas and mothers about foods that aid abortion; in fact, this is the very reason that these foods are banned from a pregnant woman’s diet till she delivers a baby.

Papaya

How to abort 1 month pregnancy? Both ripe and unripe forms of papaya if consumed in large quantities can lead to abortion. This is mainly due to the presence of latex (the milky white fluid) in the fruit. Latex has high levels of prostaglandin and oxytocin that aid in labour contractions. In addition, papaya has the papain enzyme that reduces the production of progesterone, which in turn impacts the pregnancy and helps in abortion. At the same time, papain helps in increasing the production of oestrogens. So, if you seek an abortion, befriend the papaya.

Pineapple

The green, yet-to-ripen pineapples are best for natural abortion. Pineapple has proteolytic enzyme which helps in breaking down the protein. If you consume 1-2 pineapples a day in the early stages of pregnancy, then the cervix is softened which causes bleeding, which results in abortion.

Goji berry, parsley and Vitamin C for abortion

Goji berry (dried), parsley contain Vitamin C. Vitamin C increases the level of oestrogen in blood and this leads to abortion. Parsley also has volatile oils that lead to uterine wall thinning resulting in uterine spasms and thus, abortion.

Chamomile Tea

This fragrant, popular tea is also a popular and effective natural method of abortion. This is due to its primary ingredient -thujone, which induces uterine contractions and leads to abortion. 2 to 3 cups a day should suffice for natural abortion.

Evening primrose oil helps in abortion

You may either consume a pill of the oil or massage large amounts on the cervix with it for results.

Cinnamon 

Consumed in any form leads to abortion, be it a stick chewed or in the powered form. Take care not to over eat cinnamon in a hurry to terminate the pregnancy quickly as this may leave you with major health complications.

Sexual intercourse for abortion

Hot water showers for two weeks

Extremely hot water showers (102 degrees or more) may aid in abortion. Hot water sends the body in crisis mode so the attention to the foetus is taken away which result in abortion.

Massage for ending abortion

While you may be successful in aborting an unwanted or unhealthy pregnancy, abortion can also have its effects on the mother and will usually take some time to heal fully. There also might be an emotional impact involved, which needs to be considered in post abortion care and healing.

Abortion comes with a set of pre and post care measures and is not a decision that can be taken very easily. Do exercise adequate care and caution before you go in for an abortion. Your health is top priority after all and do remember that your health is in your hands!
