Participants will: Complete a baseline survey assessing breast symptoms prior to the abortion or pregnancy loss procedure Receive a single oral dose of either cabergoline (1 mg) or placebo approximately one hour after the procedure Complete follow-up surveys on days 2, 3, 4, 7, and 14 after the procedure to assess breast symptoms and related bother A subset of participants will provide blood samples at selected time points to measure serum prolactin levels
