What Are Abortion Pills?
Abortion pills are prescription medications used for medical abortion to terminate early pregnancies. The two main drugs are mifepristone (Mifeprex) and misoprostol (Cytotec), which together provide a non-surgical method for ending pregnancy.
Mifepristone blocks progesterone, the hormone needed to maintain pregnancy, while misoprostol causes uterine contractions to expel the pregnancy tissue. Medical abortion is effective for pregnancies up to 70 days (10 weeks) from the last menstrual period.
The FDA first approved mifepristone in 2000 and extended its use to 10 weeks of gestation in 2016. Generic versions are now available, with the most recent approval in October 2025.
How Do Abortion Pills Work?
- Mifepristone (Day 1): Blocks progesterone. Uterine lining breaks down, stopping pregnancy growth and causing embryo detachment.
- Misoprostol (Day 2-3): Causes uterine contractions and softens cervix. Expels pregnancy tissue.
The combined effect mimics a natural miscarriage, with cramping and bleeding typically lasting several days to weeks.
Where to Buy Abortion Pills?
Certified medical providers can prescribe abortion pills through established healthcare systems. Planned Parenthood and other reproductive health clinics offer in-person consultations and medication dispensing. Fullhousepill is a certified pharmacy that dispenses abortion pills in select states where abortion is legal.
