Medication abortion is a way to terminate an early pregnancy by using medications. It’s often called the ‘abortion pill’, and it’s an option during the first ten weeks of pregnancy.  

It works through a combination of two drugs: Mifeprex and Misoprostol. At the clinic, you will swallow a tablet of Mifeprex. This pill is designed to stop the growth of the pregnancy and prepare your body to pass pregnancy tissue. Your provider will send you home with tablets of Misoprostol and instructions for the next step.  

At home, you should expect to have cramping and bleeding. You may also experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and fever and chills. For most people, the abortion will be complete within 24 hours. Most clinics will schedule a followup appointment to confirm the pregnancy has been terminated.  

For more information on the abortion pill and ordering online, [check out Plan C's website](https://plancpills.org/faq). For one person's account with ordering online, [check out this Reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/abortion/comments/hq0rtl/aid_access_is_amazing_my_misoprostol_experience/).

In the US, the average cost of a first-trimester abortion (up to 12 weeks) averages between $500-600 in most of the country. 

The average cost of second-trimester abortion often goes up by week of pregnancy. It can vary from $500 to $12,000. Some health insurance plans, depending on your state, do cover abortions. There are also abortion funds and practical support organizations that can help cover the costs of the abortion.

When calling a clinic, it may be helpful to ask what the price of an abortion is based on how long ago your last period was. If you need help paying for an abortion, let the clinic know. They may be able to offer help or connect you with a local abortion fund. 

Abortion in Alaska is legal at all stages of pregnancy. 

Patients in Alaska must receive counseling materials, some of which are designed to discourage them from going through with the procedure.

We work diligently to keep this site as updated as possible. If you find something that is out of date on this site, please fill out [this form](https://airtable.com/appFRkI5rK2tGjOHA/shrH3zC5rc0ISWk1A). 

In-clinic abortion procedures (sometimes called surgical or procedural abortions) take place in a clinic or hospital. They are extremely effective and work more than 99 out of 100 times. 

With a first trimester in-clinic procedure, your doctor will numb and dilate your cervix in order to insert a narrow flexible tube into your uterus. This tube will then remove the pregnancy tissue with suction.  The suction portion takes about a minute and the entire procedure takes around 10 to 20 minutes. Some clinics offer pain or sedation medications to help you feel more comfortable, before, during and/or after the procedure. Be sure to ask the clinic before you arrive about your options for sedation.  

If you need an abortion later in pregnancy (13 weeks +), you’ll likely have an in-clinic procedure called Dilation and Evacuation (D&E). An in-clinic abortion may require multiple visits to a provider and take place over two consecutive days. 

Procedural abortions later in pregnancy cost more with fewer providers to choose from.The longer you’ve been pregnant, the fewer providers there are and the more the procedure will cost. That’s why it’s helpful to contact a verified clinic to make an appointment. If you find you need to travel for care, there are [organizations](https://www.ineedana.com/advanced-search/support) that can help you navigate logistics and financial assistance.
