Yes, it is true that eating plenty of unripe papaya (papaya enzyme pills are even being researched for abortion use) can cause violent uterine contraction that will cause miscarriage or lead to an abortion. It is true I must confess. That doesn’t rule out the fact that it is unsafe. Using unripe papaya for abortion or contraception can damage your womb and make you unable to get pregnant in future.

Can papaya seeds stop pregnancy? Yes but will life threatening complications. Some of the complications of using pawpaw for abortion are uterine rupture, bleeding, endometritis, uterine infections, vaginal infections, retained product of conception, incomplete abortion, uterine synechiae , abdominal cramps, and even death.

I am begging every lady put there to seek better methods of terminating pregnancy or preventing pregnancy as unripe pawpaw will cause you more harm than good. Moreover, it is most likely that the unripe papaya you are planning to use to remove your unwanted pregnancy may not work, it will fail you.
