Abortion pills are the most common way to end an early pregnancy. They can be prescribed at in-person clinics or through trusted virtual providers like Hey Jane.

Many people prefer this method so they can take treatment from the comfort and privacy of home. In fact, 1 in 4 abortions in the U.S. are through virtual clinics like Hey Jane!
Hey Jane accepts select private insurance plans and Illinois Medicaid. If you’re not using insurance, we offer income-based pricing that is often cheaper than in-clinic treatment.

Need financial assistance? We partner with abortion funds to help you pay for treatment, and offer 'buy now, pay later' options at checkout.
After your virtual consult (chat, phone, or video call), you can message us anytime through our secure patient portal or call our 24/7 urgent like with clinical concerns.

Our team consists of doctors, advanced practice clinicians, nurses, and patient care advocates with in-clinic abortion experience (and many of us have had abortions, too). We get it, and we're here for you every step of the way.
Your privacy is our priority, which is why we ship treatment in unmarked white envelopes with no Hey Jane branding. We can also ship to a P.O. box, Fedex pickup center, a hotel, or friend's house if you'd prefer.

Treatment comes 1-3 business days after your prescription is sent to the pharmacy based on what shipping method you select.

Abortion pills are a safe and effective way to end an early pregnancy

Are abortion pills legal?

Yes, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved mifepristone (the first of two medicines used in a medication abortion) in 2000 to end pregnancies and it is now approved to end pregnancies up to 10 weeks. Since 2021 has allowed providers like Hey Jane to mail abortion pills to patients. Currently, Hey Jane is serving patients in states that permit telemedication abortion. To find out more about what is legal in your state and where to go if you are at a later stage in your pregnancy and want an abortion, visit ineedana.com, call the National Abortion Federation hotline, or visit If/When/How. The Guttmacher Institute also provides a state-by-state breakdown of current abortion laws. All links can be found on our Resources page, too.

What is the difference between an in-clinic procedural abortion and abortion pills?

Depending on your preferences and needs, abortion care with Hey Jane may provide a private and convenient way to get care. In addition to the cost of treatment and logistics to actually be seen in-person, there are hidden costs such as childcare, transportation, and taking time from work that are usually not needed with telehealth abortion care. Some key differences include:

Hey Jane In-person clinics
Types of abortion Medication abortion (up to 11 weeks of pregnancy) Medication and procedural abortion (various stages of pregnancy)
Cost Typically less! Pricing is determined by your annual income, but using insurance or financial assistance can bring your cost as low as $0. $568 (US medication abortion average) $625-$776 (US procedural abortionaverage)
Speed Complete intake 24/7, on your schedule and consult with a provider in 1 business day. Treatment is then delivered in 1-5 business days after consultation. Abortion clinic appointments vary, but wait times can be anywhere from 1 to 4 weeks for care.
Distance No travel required*. Consultations and support are all provided via our secure phone app, Spruce, and treatment is delivered to your door or PO box. As of April 2023, the average person in the US is 86 miles from an abortion provider.
Privacy Connect with Hey Jane discreetly from your phone, get treatment delivered in unmarked packaging, and take treatment from the privacy of home. Clinics take privacy seriously, but some people find it uncomfortable to get care somewhere they may run into someone they know.
Support Hey Jane provides both medical and emotional support before, during, after treatment. Chat with us on our secure messaging app, call our 24/7 urgent medical line, or connect with other patients anonymously in our online patient forum. Support levels outside of the appointment vary, and may require calling during business hours or another in-person visit. There are also 24/7 support hotlines many clinics will share with other informational resources.

*In some cases, additional testing may be required. Learn more about that here.

How do abortion funds work?

In addition to treatment costs, you can inquire about support with local transportation, long-distance travel, lodging, meals, and even childcare if needed to support you during an abortion.

After they gather details about your situation, they'll let you know whether you are eligible for funding and how much they will cover. This process can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few days depending on what hours the fund is open and reviewing requests, and how many requests they receive each day. If eligible for funding, the abortion fund will provide a code that you can use at checkout with Hey Jane.

  • 18 years or older

How far into pregnancy can I use abortion pills?

There are different factors to consider, including the type of abortion you want (medication or procedural), what state you live in (and if it restricts abortion after a certain number of weeks), and how far along your pregnancy is. Check out our online pregnancy calculator to estimate how many weeks the pregnancy is and your pregnancy options—including abortion pills.

Hey Jane treats patients up to 10 weeks of pregnancy, but there are in-person clinics where you can get abortion care beyond that point. Appointment availability can range from a few days to several weeks, so it’s important to try to have the abortion as soon as possible, if that’s what you choose.Be careful when looking for a reliable health center. There are fake clinics called ‘crisis pregnancy centers,’ managed by anti-abortion groups. At these facilities, they may not offer you all the facts about your pregnancy options. Visit our Resources page for more.

If you might continue your pregnancy, start taking a daily prenatal vitamin.

How safe are abortion pills?

Medication abortion is about 4 times safer than aspirin and 14 times safer than continuing a pregnancy.

Complications are rare and most are not serious.

  • The most common complication is a continued pregnancy. If the pregnancy continues after taking the abortion pill, you may be able to take more medicine or you will need to have an abortion procedure.
  • Serious risks, such as heavy bleeding and infection, are very rare.  

One type of pregnancy that cannot be ended using pills is an ectopic pregnancy (a pregnancy outside the uterus) - ectopic pregnancies are very rare. Medication abortion does not end an ectopic pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancies can be life threatening, so it's important to follow up with a doctor if you still feel pregnant one week after taking the pills. Contact your doctor immediately if: you do not have bleeding within 24 hours after taking the medications, you continue to feel pregnant about 7 days after taking the medications, or you have worsening abdominal pain more than 24 hours after taking the medications.
