Abortion pill (medication abortion)

Get the FDA-approved abortion pill prescribed by licensed abortion providers and delivered discreetly to your door a few days after your initial request.

How does the abortion pill work?

  1. The first medicine you take is mifepristone, which blocks the pregnancy hormone (progesterone) and stops the pregnancy from growing.
  2. 24-48 hours later you take a second medicine, called misoprostol which causes cramping and bleeding to empty the uterus.
  3. You can expect bleeding like a heavy period.
  4. Taken together, these two pills work up to 98 out of 100 times to end an early pregnancy.
  5. After you take mifepristone (the first medication), you must complete the abortion. If treatment with medication does not work the first time, you may have the option to repeat the medicines or you will need an in-clinic procedural abortion.

Are medication abortions safe?

  1. Medication abortion (“abortion pill”) is one of the SAFEST medical procedures.
  2. Complications occur in less than 0.4% of patients.
  3. Side effects such as fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea are common for up to 24  hours after taking the second medication (misoprostol).

What are the risks?

  1. Complications are rare and most are not serious. 
  2. The most common complication is a continued pregnancy. If the pregnancy continues after taking the abortion pill, you may be able to take more medicine or you will need to have an abortion procedure.
  3. Serious risks, such as heavy bleeding and infection, are very rare.
