Where can I find abortion services in Minneapolis?

You have several options for accessing abortion services in Minneapolis:

1. Abortion pill (medication abortion): Available up to 10 weeks of pregnancy, this option involves taking two FDA-approved medications—mifepristone and misoprostol— at home or anywhere you’re staying. A medication abortion involves cramping and bleeding, similar to a heavy period, and is over 98% effective at ending a pregnancy. You can get abortion pills mailed to your door and virtual support from Hey Jane’s judgment-free care team. Start here.

2. In-person clinics: Located throughout the city, clinics are licensed health centers that can offer procedural abortions at any point in a pregnancy, or abortion pills up to 10 weeks of pregnancy. Every clinic is different—some offer same-day or weekend appointments, while others may take weeks or days to be seen depending on patient demand.

Does Minnesota Medicaid cover abortion?

In some cases, yes. Medical Assistance (MA) and MinnesotaCare, the state’s Medicaid and low-income insurance programs, cover abortion care in cases of rape, incest, medical necessity, or if the life or health of the pregnant person is at risk.

What are my options for a medical abortion in Minneapolis?

A medical abortion (abortion pill) is available up to 10 weeks of pregnancy and can be taken safely at home. It involves two medications—mifepristone, which stops the pregnancy from growing, and misoprostol, which helps the body cramp to expel the pregnancy. Together, they are over 95% effective.

After taking the first pill, mifepristone, you’ll take misoprostol 6 to 48 hours later. Cramping and bleeding typically begin within a few hours, and most people pass the pregnancy within 24–72 hours. The experience can feel similar to a heavy period, and it's normal to have intense cramps, bleeding, and fatigue for a few days afterward.

You can get the abortion pill through clinics or telehealth services that ship throughout Minnesota, like Hey Jane. You can also read more about what to expect during a medication abortion

  • Private insurance plans
  • Minnesota Medicaid plans if the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest, or if your life or health are at risk 
  • Nonprofit or community clinics
  • Abortion funds like the National Abortion Federation (NAF)
