Understanding the Abortion Pill Process
The Abortion Pill is a safe, non-surgical method for ending an early pregnancy—typically up to 13 weeks from your last menstrual period. This option is increasingly preferred by patients seeking a private experience in the comfort of their own home, with medical support just a call away.
How the Medication Abortion Works
Medication abortion at FPA Chicago involves two FDA-approved medications: mifepristone and misoprostol. Here’s how the process works:
- Initial Consultation: You’ll meet with our medical staff to review your health history, confirm pregnancy length (using our pregnancy calculator if needed), and discuss the process in detail.
- First Medication (Mifepristone): Taken at the clinic, this pill blocks the hormone needed to sustain pregnancy.
- Second Medication (Misoprostol): Taken at home, usually 24–48 hours later, this causes the uterus to expel the pregnancy.
- Follow-Up Care: We schedule a follow-up (in person or remotely) to confirm that the process is complete and you are recovering well.
Our team is available by phone throughout the process to answer questions and provide guidance, ensuring you never feel alone.
Is the Abortion Pill Right for You?
The Abortion Pill is ideal for patients in the first trimester abortion window (up to 13 weeks). It is a highly effective and safe option for most individuals.

If you’re unsure how far along you are, our online pregnancy calculator can provide helpful guidance.
