What should I consider before taking the abortion pill?

• Is the pregnancy viable?
• Are you sure it is not ectopic?
• How many weeks along are you into your pregnancy?
• What are all your options?
• Who will be your support system?

Speak with, and be seen by, a medical professional before making any final decision. This isn’t like coloring your hair or taking something for a headache. This is your body; the decision to have an abortion is a medical decision and one with potential serious risks if you go it alone.

Why is a medical pregnancy verification important?
Accurate information is critical to your health. There is no room for guess work here. You matter and your health matters. No matter how you got pregnant, through consent or not, how you care for yourself and the decisions you make around your next steps, you deserve to have the best care possible.

Knowing exactly how many weeks you are into your pregnancy is a piece of vital information. Having a consultation with a medical professional will allow you a safe place to review your options.  

Is the pregnancy viable?

Did you know that nearly 25% of pregnancies end in miscarriage?

If you have a positive pregnancy test, an ultrasound can help to confirm if the pregnancy is viable. Why put your body through an abortion procedure if the pregnancy isn’t viable? 

What is an ectopic pregnancy? Why could taking the abortion pill be a problem?

According to the Cleveland Clinic, “An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that happens outside of the uterus. This happens when a fertilized egg implants in a structure that can’t support its growth. An ectopic pregnancy often happens in the fallopian tube (a pair of structures that connect the ovaries and uterus). 

The abortion pill is not prescribed to be effective for an ectopic pregnancy. Because an ectopic pregnancy can be life threatening, you should seek medical verification of the pregnancy, expected or unexpected, as soon as you suspect you may be pregnant, or if you have symptoms of an ectopic pregnancy.

How many weeks are you into your pregnancy?

“How many weeks pregnant am I?” is one of the first questions you should ask. The gestational age of your pregnancy will determine if you are eligible for a medical abortion, also known as the abortion pill. How far along you are will impact every decision you make.
