Abortion Pill

Medication Abortion: Early, At-Home Abortion

Medication Abortion, also called the “Abortion Pill” is a non-surgical, safe, and effective early option to end a pregnancy up to 11 weeks. If you qualify, you can get a no-cost medication abortion at CHOICES. If you are more than 11 weeks from the first day of your last period, you can have an in-clinic abortion to end your pregnancy.

The Abortion Pill Process

The medication abortion process has two steps and includes two different medicines.

Step 1: First, at CHOICES you take a pill called mifepristone which stops the pregnancy from growing.

Step 2: Second, at your home, 24 to 48 hours after taking the first pill, you take another set of 4 pills called misoprostol. The second pill empties the uterus, and you will experience cramping and heavy bleeding. The pills can also cause pain, and sometimes, nausea, diarrhea or chills. After the pregnancy tissue is expelled, the bleeding and pain become much less.
