简要总结
Women who are requesting pregnancy termination at 14-16 weeks, who would normally have osmotic dilator insertion the day before their procedure, would be asked if they wanted to participate. Participants would be randomized to two groups: first, dilator insertion as usual, or second, mifepristone taken the day before the procedure.
