There are a couple of websites where you can order the abortion pill online. And while it seems
simple enough to just fill out a form and chat with someone online, it’s important to first
determine a few things. How far along are you in your pregnancy? Is there any possibility that
you may have miscarried? After a miscarriage, the pregnancy hormone will continue to be
present for days and can cause a pregnancy test to read as positive even though a pregnancy
may have already ended on its own.1 In this instance, there would be no need for the abortion
pill.
Although it’s challenging to find the exact price of purchasing the abortion pill online, GoodRx
lists $600 as the average cost.2 But before placing an order online, there is some important
information to know.
Knowing When You Got Pregnant
Why does it matter how far along you are in your pregnancy (the gestational age)? According to
the FDA, you are only eligible to take the abortion pill 70 days or less from the first day of your
last menstrual period.3
Are you confident you know the date your pregnancy began? We find that many women that
come to Open Arms Pregnancy Clinic do not have regular monthly cycles or they don’t
remember when their last period was. We can conduct an ultrasound exam that will confirm if
you have a viable pregnancy, along with precise dating.
For your safety, here at Open Arms Pregnancy Clinic, we offer free pregnancy confirmation and
options consultation.
Knowing If You’ve Miscarried
Believe it or not, the Mayo Clinic says that up to 20% of known pregnancies end in a natural
miscarriage. Some estimate that the number could be even higher due to more women
miscarrying before knowing they are pregnant.4
You could receive a positive result on an at-home pregnancy test days or even weeks after
miscarrying because it takes your body a while to realize it’s no longer pregnant.1
How do you tell if you’ve already miscarried? Once again, ultrasound can answer this question.
An ultrasound will confirm the number of days you’ve been pregnant and whether or not you
may have miscarried. The ultrasound will also verify the location of the pregnancy. Although
rare, some pregnancies form outside the uterus and are extremely dangerous. The abortion pill
will not fix this type of pregnancy.
Where to get a No-Cost Ultrasound
At Open Arms Pregnancy Clinic, we do not provide the abortion pill but we do provide free
clinical pregnancy testing and confirmation ultrasounds because we believe every woman
should have access to the information they need to make a fully informed choice.
