Dr. George Delgado’s New Book Explains Abortion Pill Reversal

February 17, 2026

With the overturning of Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey in 2022, many pro-lifers thought that abortion rates were certain to plummet from that point forward. Unfortunately, that has not been the case. While surgical abortions have certainly decreased in frequency, chemical abortions (through the use of the so-called “morning after pill”) have drastically increased.

Chemical abortions are typically performed in very early stages of pregnancy, which makes it easier and easier for those involved in procuring and performing the abortion to deny the reality of what is happening, to deny the existence of the unique and unrepeatable human who is being killed in the process.

However, there are cases where a chemical abortion is initiated, and then the woman changes her mind and wants to halt and reverse the process. Through a deep understanding of how the human body—and specifically the female reproductive system and hormones—works, Dr. George Delgado and others developed a process to do just that.

Delgado’s story is the subject of Abortion Pill Reversal: A Second Chance at Choice, his new book published by Ignatius Press. The book chronicles Delgado’s development of the Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) process, the challenges along the way, and includes personal accounts by women who attempted APR to reverse the chemical abortions that they had initiated, and others whose lives have been affected by this process.

Dr. Delgado recently spoke with Catholic World Report about his new book, his development of Abortion Pill Reversal, and the importance of fighting against all forms of abortion. Click here to read the full interview.
