Am I Eligible for the Abortion Pill?

Determining if you’re eligible for the abortion pill is essential to safeguarding your health. Know the facts about where your pregnancy stands.

An ultrasound can help you make an informed pregnancy decision and to consider all your options. Following positive medical-grade pregnancy testing with us, confirm your pregnancy details with a no-cost, limited OB ultrasound at Ascend Women’s Center.

Learn whether your pregnancy is progressing.

A positive test alone isn’t enough to verify a pregnancy. An ultrasound verifies that your pregnancy is progressing and there is a heartbeat. 

As many as 26% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage, with 80% of those losses occurring within the first trimester. If your pregnancy has ended, you may need medical treatment to prevent complications. 

Determine how far along you are.

The FDA only recommends the abortion pill for women up to 10 weeks pregnant. So, it’s vital to confirm this detail of your pregnancy.

Gaining this important information is essential to decision-making because it can help determine your options. Taking abortion drugs after this time is not recommended because of the potential for health risks or serious side effects. 

Verify whether the pregnancy is in the right location. 

Pregnancies should develop in the uterus. However, some women experience an ectopic pregnancy, which occurs when the fertilized egg implants in another location (such as the cervix or a fallopian tube).

Ectopic pregnancies cannot survive and can lead to life-threatening complications without treatment. Moreover, since women can have typical early pregnancy symptoms with this condition, they may not detect an issue until later on.

An ultrasound is crucial to verifying your pregnancy’s location and keeping you safe. This scan is easier to obtain than you may realize.
