When Is the Best Time to Have an Abortion?
âś… The Best Time to Abort Is as Early as Possible
Whether you're considering abortion for personal, medical, or financial reasons, the earlier you act, the safer, easier, and more effective the process will be.
Why?
âś… Less risk of complications
âś… Less pain and bleeding
âś… More affordable and accessible
âś… More options available (e.g., pills vs. surgical)
âś… Less emotional and physical stress
Aborting early also helps protect your privacy, avoid stigma, and plan better for recovery and family planning.
⏩ What Does “Early” Mean?
We recommend that women consider abortion as soon as they confirm pregnancy, ideally:
Between 4 and 12 weeks from the first day of your last period
This is when medical abortion using pills is most effective and safe (over 98% success rate)
🤔What If I'm Past 12 Weeks?
It’s still possible to have a safe abortion, however that needs management at a medical facility and NOT suitable doing at home.
