We have developed a digital assistant based on GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) technology, trained specifically to provide empathetic, medically accurate, and guideline-based responses in Hebrew, tailored to the clinical protocols used in our clinic. The goal of this interventional study is to learn about the feasibility, usability, and acceptability of a GPT-based digital assistant for patients undergoing medication abortion or treatment for missed abortion. The study aims to assess use of the digital assistant, patient-reported usability, usefulness and satisfaction, perceived support, comprehension of treatment instructions, and decisions about contacting medical staff. Participants already receiving standard care for medication abortion or missed abortion at the clinic will be offered access to the digital assistant immediately after enrollment. They may use the assistant freely at home throughout their treatment process and will complete baseline and follow-up surveys about their experience, emotional state, and any additional contacts with the clinic.

To evaluate the Foley Balloon technique for cervical preparation before second trimester surgical abortion between 16 and 21 weeks estimated gestational age in combination with misoprostol to prepare the cervix before dilation and evacuation (D\&E) instead of osmotic dilators (Laminaria). Specific Aim One: Assess definitively whether using a Foley Balloon and Misoprostol is non-inferior to osmotic dilators for cervical preparation before D\&E. Specific Aim Two: Evaluate patient satisfaction with the two methods of second trimester abortion. Specific Aim Three: Evaluate provider satisfaction with the two methods of second trimester abortion.

The goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, non-inferiority, and side-effect profile of an updated misoprostol-only regimen, as compared to the combined mifepristone-misoprostol regimen, among people seeking medication abortion (MAB) through 77 days of pregnancy in telehealth and in-person settings. The investigators aim to evaluate this in both in-clinic and telehealth medication abortion care in the United States. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What proportion of pregnant people using an updated misoprostol-only medication abortion regimen have a complete abortion using just the prescribed pills? 2. Is the updated misoprostol-only medication abortion regimen no more than 5% less effective (non-inferior) than the standard combined medication abortion regimen? 3. What is the pattern of beta hCG decline following use of a misoprostol-only medication abortion through 77 days of pregnancy? Participants will: * be randomized to one of two medication regimens (misoprostol-only or the combined regimen) in a 1:1 ratio based on duration of pregnancy at enrollment. - self-report outcomes via daily surveys for the first 3 days, and thereafter weekly at 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35 days. * return to the clinical site for tests as instructed The investigators hypothesize that the proportion with complete abortions in the misoprostol-only arm will be non-inferior to the proportion with complete abortions in the combined regimen arm within a 5% margin of inferiority
