Hello
Thank you for your query.
Deviry contains progesterone, and in no way is prescribed for abortion.
If your pregnancy test is positive , then Deviry is not the recommended medication.
You need to take proper medical abortion pills for that.
Only if they fail, you need to do a D and C.
Am surprised in fact that a gynecologist prescribed Deviry.
Please get a second opinion, and have the correct prescription for medical abortion.
take care
