If you recently learned you’re pregnant, you might be wondering how far along you are—especially since at-home pregnancy tests don’t provide that information. Our online calculator can help estimate how long you’ve been pregnant based on your last period or the date you may have conceived, giving you a clearer picture of where you are and what options you have moving forward.
Pregnancy is usually measured from the first day of your last period. If you’re unsure or have irregular cycles, an ultrasound can more precisely confirm your gestational age (how far along your pregnancy is). Knowing this information can help you explore your next steps.
Understanding the pregnancy timeline & abortion options
As mentioned, pregnancy is counted in weeks starting from your last period, not the day of conception. Once you know how far along the pregnancy is, the next step may be evaluating your options including parenthood, adoption, and abortion. If you’re looking for support or unsure of what to do next, All Options Talkline and Faith Aloud are two resources that provide unbiased and judgment-free information over the phone.
If you choose to continue the pregnancy, you may want to start a prenatal vitamin and schedule an appointment with a trusted provider in your area.
If you’re considering abortion, different options are available depending on how many weeks pregnant you are, state laws, and where you go for care, including:
All three methods are safe and effective, but availability varies by state depending on factors like legal restrictions or clinic availability. You can check out our guide on abortion options through different stages of pregnancy to learn more about when you can access these treatments. If you’re not sure which abortion method is right for you, our guide on the pill vs. surgical abortion provides deeper insights on both treatments.
Keeping the pregnancy — what to expect next
If you choose to continue the pregnancy, there are a few key steps to consider for your health and the health of your baby. First, scheduling an appointment with a trusted health care provider can help confirm the pregnancy and set up a prenatal care plan. Taking a prenatal vitamin with folic acid is also recommended to support early development.
Throughout pregnancy, you’ll have routine check-ups to monitor your health and the baby’s growth. You may also want to explore available support systems, including doulas, midwives, or parenting resources in your community.
Early abortion options (up to 11 weeks) – the abortion pill (medication abortion)
Medication abortion—or the abortion pill—is a safe and effective way to end an early pregnancy. It involves taking two medications: mifepristone, which blocks pregnancy hormones, and misoprostol, which causes the uterus to expel the pregnancy. This method is 98% effective and can be done from the comfort of your home.
You can get abortion pills through virtual clinics like Hey Jane, in-person clinics, or certain health care providers.


In-clinic abortion options (up to 24 weeks, depending on state laws)
If you’re beyond 11 weeks or prefer an in-clinic procedure, you have two options:

What to do if your state restricts abortion
Some states restrict abortion access after a certain number of weeks into pregnancy. Others may restrict the types of abortions available, or abortion altogether.
If you are unable to get abortion care in your state, you still have options. If you can travel to a state where abortion is legal, you can receive care there. If you need financial assistance to pay for abortion and related travel or accommodations (like a hotel), abortion funds may be able to help.
If you are less than 11 weeks pregnant and are in (or can travel to) one of the 21 states Hey Jane provides care in, our online clinic may be an option for you. Explore our interactive map to get in-depth state guides to abortion—including state-specific costs, accessibility, and much more.
