Misoprostol / Methotrexate as oral abortion inducers (2)
--------------------------------------------------------

Sweden has some experience in mifepristol for abortion - in Norway it is
not yet accepted. We are very satisfied so far with our level of safety in
surgical, early abortions in the public sector only (they are free of
charge). In 1995 a gvt. committee in Norway summarized 15 years of experience
with our liberal law on abortion. It is published, but I do not know if
there are copies in English, but the Norwegian version is named Proposal to
gvt. no 16, 1995-96.

P.S.
Helen:

Can you please confirm that there is indeed a SA gynecologist who will
lecture at the FIGO event. Can I get her whereabouts immediately...?
