At Parkmed NYC, we believe that the highest quality abortion care comes from in-person medical support. If you are considering the abortion pill in NYC, our expert team is here to provide safe, compassionate, and personalized care from your first consultation through follow-up.

Our board-certified medical team is committed to protecting your health, comfort, and privacy every step of the way.

What Is the Abortion Pill?

The abortion pill—also called a medical abortion or non-surgical abortion—is a safe and effective way to end an early pregnancy, typically up to a certain number of weeks as determined by your provider.

A medical abortion involves taking a series of prescription medications under the guidance of a licensed clinician. These medications work together to:

  • Stop the pregnancy from continuing by blocking the hormones needed to sustain it.
  • Cause the uterus to contract and empty, similar to a heavy menstrual period.

This process offers a non-invasive alternative to a surgical procedure and can often be completed in the comfort of your home, with full support and clear instructions from the Parkmed NYC medical team.

How Effective Is the Abortion Pill?

When prescribed and supervised by a qualified healthcare professional, the abortion pill regimen is over 95% effective for individuals within the recommended gestational age range. Medical studies and years of real-world use have demonstrated that this option is both safe and reliable for ending an early pregnancy.

At Parkmed NYC, we:

  • Confirm how far along you are in pregnancy with appropriate testing.
  • Review your medical history to ensure a medical abortion is safe for you.
  • Provide clear, written and verbal instructions on what to expect.
  • Offer 24/7 access to emergency support if any concerns arise.
  • Schedule follow-up care to confirm that the pregnancy has ended and that you are healing well.

If you are eligible for a medical abortion in NYC, our team will walk you through every step of the process and ensure you never feel alone or unsupported.

Medical Abortion vs. Surgical Abortion

Medical Abortion (Abortion Pill)

  • Uses medications to end and expel the pregnancy.
  • Often completed at home after an in-clinic visit and evaluation.
  • May feel similar to a heavy period with cramping and bleeding.
  • Can be a more private and flexible option for many patients.

Surgical Abortion (In-Clinic Procedure)

  • Uses gentle suction to remove the pregnancy in a clinic setting.
  • Typically very quick, often completed in just a few minutes.
  • Performed under the supervision of a highly trained medical team.
  • May be recommended at later gestational ages or based on individual health needs.

Both medical abortion and surgical abortion are safe and effective. The best choice depends on factors such as:

  • Your gestational age (how far along the pregnancy is).
  • Your medical history and current health.
  • Your personal preferences around privacy, timing, and setting.

During your visit at Parkmed NYC, our providers will explain each option, answer your questions, and help you choose the method that feels right for you.

FAQ

The abortion pill, also called medication abortion or medical abortion, is a way to end an early pregnancy using prescription medications rather than an in-clinic aspiration procedure. At Parkmed NYC, medication abortion is available for eligible patients during the first trimester.

Medication abortion typically uses two medications: mifepristone and misoprostol. Mifepristone blocks progesterone, a hormone needed for a pregnancy to continue. Misoprostol then causes the uterus to contract and empty.

At Parkmed NYC, your medical team will give you specific instructions about when and how to take your medications.

No. The abortion pill and emergency contraception such as Plan B are different medications used for different purposes.

The abortion pill ends an existing pregnancy. Plan B and other forms of emergency contraception help prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex and do not end an established pregnancy.

Medication abortion is highly effective in early pregnancy. At Parkmed NYC, the abortion pill has a success rate of approximately 95% or greater when used by eligible patients within the recommended gestational age range.

A small percentage of patients may need additional medication or an in-clinic aspiration procedure if the pregnancy does not completely pass.

Parkmed NYC currently offers medication abortion to medically eligible patients during the first trimester.

Pregnancy is generally dated from the first day of your last menstrual period. Your Parkmed NYC provider will determine your gestational age and whether medication abortion is an appropriate option for you.

You do not need to determine the exact gestational age yourself.

At Parkmed NYC, your medical team will review your pregnancy history and perform appropriate testing to determine how far along you are. This may include a pregnancy test, ultrasound and blood testing.

If you have a positive pregnancy test and are considering abortion, scheduling an early pregnancy consultation can help you understand your options.

At Parkmed NYC, our medical team can confirm your pregnancy, determine how far along you are, review your medical history and explain both medication abortion and in-clinic abortion options. The decision about which option is right for you is personal, and our role is to provide accurate information and medical support.

Parkmed NYC uses testing to confirm the pregnancy, determine gestational age, evaluate your health and identify conditions that could affect whether medication abortion is appropriate for you.

Testing also helps the medical team evaluate the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy, which cannot be treated with the abortion pill.

Parkmed NYC’s current medication-abortion protocol includes an ultrasound as part of the clinical evaluation.

The ultrasound helps determine gestational age and evaluate the location of the pregnancy. This is part of Parkmed NYC’s clinical care model; an ultrasound is not a federal requirement for every medication abortion in the United States.

Very early pregnancies may not yet be clearly visible on ultrasound.

If the pregnancy cannot be seen clearly, Parkmed NYC may recommend additional testing, such as repeat ultrasound or blood tests measuring the pregnancy hormone hCG. This helps the medical team determine whether the pregnancy is simply very early or whether additional evaluation for an ectopic pregnancy is needed.

Parkmed NYC’s current medication-abortion protocol includes blood testing as part of the medical evaluation.

Blood work can provide important information about your health and may include checking your blood count, pregnancy hormone levels or blood type depending on your individual circumstances.

Tell your Parkmed NYC provider if you know that you have Rh-negative blood.

Your clinician will review your blood type, gestational age and medical history and explain whether Rh immune globulin or any additional care is recommended for you based on current clinical guidance.

Parkmed NYC currently provides medication abortion through an in-person clinical evaluation so our medical team can confirm your pregnancy, assess your health and provide direct support.

This is Parkmed NYC’s clinical care model. Current federal FDA rules do not require every patient in the United States to have an in-person appointment before being prescribed mifepristone.

Medication abortion is not appropriate for everyone. Your medical provider will review your health history before prescribing it.

Mifepristone should not be used in certain situations, including a confirmed or suspected ectopic pregnancy, certain adrenal disorders, long-term corticosteroid treatment, certain bleeding disorders or use of some blood-thinning medications, inherited porphyria, or an allergy to mifepristone or misoprostol.

An IUD that is currently in place must be removed before mifepristone is taken.

Tell your Parkmed NYC provider about all medications, supplements and medical conditions before beginning a medication abortion.

If you have an IUD in place, tell your Parkmed NYC provider before starting a medication abortion.

Under the FDA-approved mifepristone regimen, an IUD that is in place must be removed before mifepristone is taken. Your provider can evaluate your pregnancy and discuss the safest next steps.

No. The abortion pill does not treat an ectopic pregnancy.

An ectopic pregnancy occurs when a pregnancy develops outside the uterus, most commonly in a fallopian tube. It can become a serious medical emergency if it is not diagnosed and treated.

This is one reason Parkmed NYC carefully evaluates early pregnancies before proceeding with medication abortion.

Medication abortion is non-invasive and does not require instruments to be inserted through the cervix.

Some patients prefer medication abortion because much of the process takes place at home and may feel more private. It can also feel more similar to the body’s natural miscarriage process.

Other patients prefer an in-clinic aspiration procedure because it is typically completed more quickly. Parkmed NYC can explain both options so you can choose the approach that best fits your medical needs and preferences.

Medication abortion takes longer to complete than an in-clinic aspiration procedure and requires more active participation at home.

Patients should expect cramping, bleeding and passing pregnancy tissue. Bleeding or spotting may continue for days or sometimes several weeks.

Some patients prefer an in-clinic procedure because the procedure itself is typically completed in a much shorter period of time.

Cramping is an expected part of medication abortion because misoprostol causes the uterus to contract and empty.

The intensity varies significantly from person to person. Some patients describe cramps similar to a heavy menstrual period, while others experience much stronger cramping.

Your Parkmed NYC medical team will explain the pain-control options recommended for you and what symptoms should prompt you to contact the clinic.

Medication abortion generally begins with mifepristone followed by misoprostol.

At Parkmed NYC, your provider will tell you exactly when and how to take each medication based on your treatment plan. Parkmed NYC’s current protocol typically has patients take the second medication at home after the first medication.

Always follow the instructions given to you by your Parkmed NYC medical team.

Many patients begin experiencing cramping and bleeding within approximately one to four hours after taking misoprostol, although the timing can vary.

Bleeding often becomes heavier as the pregnancy passes and may include blood clots. Your Parkmed NYC provider will explain what you should expect based on your pregnancy and treatment plan.

Bleeding is expected during medication abortion and is often heavier than a normal menstrual period while the pregnancy is passing.

Blood clots can also occur. After the heaviest part of the process is over, bleeding usually decreases, although lighter bleeding or spotting may continue for days or several weeks.

If you are unsure whether the amount of bleeding you are experiencing is normal, contact Parkmed NYC.

Parkmed NYC currently advises patients to contact the clinic promptly if they are completely soaking through more than two maxi pads per hour for two consecutive hours.

You should also contact Parkmed NYC for severe or worsening pain, persistent vomiting, fever that concerns you, fainting, severe weakness or other symptoms that seem unusual or alarming.

Follow the emergency and aftercare instructions provided specifically to you by your medical team.

Because medication abortion at Parkmed NYC occurs early in pregnancy, the pregnancy tissue may not be clearly recognizable.

It may appear as part of a blood clot or as a small amount of lighter-colored tissue. What you see depends partly on how far along the pregnancy is.

Seeing tissue pass does not by itself confirm that the abortion is complete, which is one reason follow-up care is important.

Parkmed NYC recommends choosing a time when you can remain somewhere comfortable, private and close to a bathroom during the active part of the medication-abortion process.

Under Parkmed NYC’s current instructions, patients should plan to be home for at least approximately 12 hours after taking the second medication.

Because everyone’s experience is different, it is helpful to avoid important work, travel or other obligations during this period.

In addition to cramping and bleeding, medication abortion can cause temporary symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, chills, fatigue, dizziness or a mild fever.

Your Parkmed NYC medical team will explain which symptoms are expected and which symptoms require medical attention.

Yes. Parkmed NYC provides patients undergoing abortion care with access to medical support 24 hours a day, seven days a week for urgent concerns related to their treatment.

If something does not feel right or you are uncertain whether a symptom is normal, contact Parkmed NYC rather than trying to determine the answer on your own.

Follow-up care confirms that the pregnancy has ended and that the medication-abortion process is complete.

Parkmed NYC’s current medication-abortion protocol includes a follow-up appointment approximately 14 to 21 days after completing the medication process.

You should attend your scheduled follow-up even if you feel well and believe the pregnancy has passed.

Yes. Feeling normal does not necessarily confirm that the pregnancy has completely passed.

Parkmed NYC’s current protocol includes follow-up testing to verify that the medication abortion was successful and that no additional treatment is needed.

At your follow-up visit, Parkmed NYC may perform a urine pregnancy test, ultrasound and medical evaluation to confirm that the pregnancy has ended and that your recovery is progressing normally.

Your medical provider will tell you when the medication-abortion process is considered complete.

Medication abortion is highly effective, but occasionally pregnancy tissue remains in the uterus or the pregnancy continues.

If this occurs, Parkmed NYC will evaluate you and discuss the appropriate next step. Depending on the situation, additional medication or a brief in-clinic aspiration procedure may be recommended.

Medication abortion does not increase the risk of infertility.

Having a medication abortion generally does not reduce your ability to become pregnant or have a healthy pregnancy in the future.

Fertility can return quickly after an abortion, sometimes before your next menstrual period.

If you do not want to become pregnant again immediately, ask your Parkmed NYC provider about birth-control options and when to begin using them.

If you have taken mifepristone and then become uncertain about continuing the medication-abortion process, contact Parkmed NYC or another qualified medical provider as soon as possible for individualized medical guidance.

Treatments advertised as “abortion pill reversal” have not been proven safe and effective through established scientific methods and are not FDA approved.

Yes. Parkmed NYC provides confidential reproductive-health care.

New York also has strong privacy protections for reproductive-health services. Health care providers generally cannot disclose information about your abortion care to a partner, parent, guardian or another person without your permission, subject to applicable legal exceptions.

If you have specific concerns about insurance statements, electronic records or communications from the clinic, ask Parkmed NYC about available privacy options when scheduling your appointment.

No. A minor in New York does not need parental permission to obtain an abortion.

Parkmed NYC provides confidential reproductive-health services and counseling to patients of different ages, including teenagers.

Yes. Abortion is legal in New York.

Medication abortion is one of the abortion-care options available to eligible patients in the state. Parkmed NYC currently offers medication abortion to medically eligible patients during the first trimester under its current clinical protocol.

Under current FDA rules, mifepristone is a prescription medication that may be dispensed by a certified pharmacy or by or under the supervision of a certified prescriber. Certified pharmacies may include pharmacies that dispense medication in person or ship it to patients.

Mifepristone is not an over-the-counter medication.

Parkmed NYC currently provides medication abortion using its own clinical care and dispensing process. If you are seeking medication abortion specifically through Parkmed NYC, contact the clinic for its current appointment and medication instructions.

Mifepristone is a prescription medication in the United States. The FDA recommends obtaining it through the regulated U.S. medication supply system from a certified prescriber or certified pharmacy.

Patients should be cautious about websites or sellers offering unidentified, counterfeit or unapproved medications.

If you want medication abortion through Parkmed NYC, contact our office so our medical team can evaluate you and explain your treatment options.

The cost of medication abortion depends on factors including your insurance coverage and individual benefits.

Parkmed NYC checks insurance benefits before your visit whenever possible and explains your expected out-of-pocket cost. Parkmed NYC does not add hidden fees to the quoted cost of your care.

Contact Parkmed NYC for the most current self-pay pricing, insurance information and financial-assistance options.

Many insurance plans cover abortion care, although your exact coverage depends on your individual insurance policy.

New York requires Medicaid and state-regulated private health insurance plans to provide abortion coverage under applicable state rules. Some employer-sponsored or out-of-state plans may operate under different rules.

Parkmed NYC can check your benefits and explain your expected coverage and out-of-pocket costs before your appointment.

Do not assume that you cannot receive care because you do not have insurance.

Parkmed NYC can discuss self-pay options, insurance eligibility and available financial-assistance resources with you. Depending on your circumstances, our staff may also be able to help you explore Medicaid or abortion-funding resources.

Contact Parkmed NYC directly so our team can review the options that may be available to you.

How to take The Abortion Pill & What to Expect

The first step in a non-surgical (medical) abortion, often called an abortion by pill, is a comprehensive clinic visit and evaluation.

When you arrive at the facility, you will be greeted by a professional, supportive staff who are there to answer your questions and guide you through every step of the process. You’ll complete a confidential medical history questionnaire so the doctor can better understand your health, address your unique concerns, and determine whether the abortion pill is a safe option for you.

After registration, our team will perform basic testing to confirm your pregnancy and assess your overall health. This typically includes:

  • A urine pregnancy test
  • A blood test
  • A sonogram (ultrasound)

The doctor must make sure that you are in the first trimester of pregnancy so that an ectopic pregnancy (a pregnancy developing outside the uterus) can be safely ruled out by sonogram. Ectopic pregnancy is a serious medical condition. As the pregnancy grows in the fallopian tube, it can rupture and cause heavy internal bleeding. In these situations, the abortion pill is not effective and emergency medical care is required.

If the pregnancy is not seen clearly on the sonogram, you may have additional blood tests to check the level of pregnancy hormone (hCG) in your bloodstream. These hormone levels help the doctor determine whether:

  • You are simply too early in pregnancy for the abortion pill, or
  • You may be at risk for an ectopic pregnancy.

This is why you cannot safely use the abortion pill in very early pregnancy and why it is so important to come in for an evaluation as soon as you think you are pregnant. If an ectopic pregnancy is diagnosed early, it can sometimes be treated non-surgically with medication or other medical management, depending on your situation.

You must also be in the first trimester for the non-surgical abortion to be most effective. Beyond this point, the success rate drops and the chances of needing a follow-up procedure increase. In some cases, even when the abortion pill is used correctly, not all pregnancy tissue leaves the uterus. If this happens, a simple in-office surgical procedure is required to complete the abortion. This occurs in only a small percentage of patients during the first trimester, which is why providers are more cautious about offering the abortion pill for pregnancies beyond that point.

Your clinic visit is also an important time for your doctor to address your emotional and psychological needs, as well as any medical conditions that might affect your eligibility for the abortion pill. Certain medications or health issues can make a medical abortion less effective or increase your risk of complications. It is very important to tell your doctor about:

  • All prescription and non-prescription medications you take
  • Any bleeding or clotting disorders
  • Other significant medical conditions

This allows your provider to make sure that a medical abortion is safe and appropriate for you.

This visit is also your opportunity to ask detailed questions about how the abortion pill works and what you are likely to experience at home. You can take time to confirm your decision not only about having an abortion, but also about whether you prefer a non-surgical abortion or a surgical/aspiration procedure. Your provider will explain the benefits, risks, and expectations of each option so you can make an informed choice.

Once you and your doctor are both confident that you are a good candidate and that you are ready to proceed, you will take the first abortion medication in the office. This medicine is taken under medical supervision because of federal safety regulations governing how it can be prescribed and dispensed.

The first medication works by blocking the hormone needed to maintain a pregnancy, allowing the pregnancy to stop developing. Some patients may experience mild side effects such as dizziness, nausea, or light spotting, but many do not have significant symptoms at this stage. Your provider will review possible side effects with you and explain what is considered normal and when to call the clinic.

Before you leave, the doctor will give you a second medication to take at home, according to the instructions you receive during your visit. This second medication causes the uterus to contract and expel the pregnancy, usually resulting in cramping and bleeding similar to a heavy period. You will be given clear written and verbal guidance on:

  • Exactly when and how to take the second medication
  • What level of bleeding and cramping is expected
  • Which symptoms are normal and which require immediate medical attention
  • How to reach the clinic or on-call provider if you have concerns

Throughout this process, your clinic team remains your primary source of support and medical guidance. They are there to help you feel safe, informed, and confident about your decision and your care.

For the second step of the abortion pill process, we recommend choosing a time when you can be at home, comfortable, and relaxed. Plan to be near a bathroom and in a quiet, private space where you won’t feel rushed. Once you feel ready, you will place the tablets of the second medication inside your cheeks (between your cheek and gums) and allow them to dissolve, following the instructions given by your provider.

This second medication causes your uterus to contract and expel the pregnancy tissue. Many patients start to experience cramping and bleeding within one to four hours after taking it, but the timing can vary. Every body is different, and your experience may not be exactly the same as someone else’s. You are encouraged to take the pain medication recommended by your provider to help manage cramping during this phase of the medical abortion process. Even with pain relief, you should expect to feel some degree of cramping. The goal of the medication is to make the process less intense and more manageable, not to remove all sensation.

You may also find that resting, lying down, and using a heating pad or hot water bottle on your lower back or abdomen can help reduce discomfort. If the pain medication you were advised to use does not seem to help at all, or if the pain becomes severe, contact the clinic to discuss your symptoms with a nurse or doctor.

As the medication begins to work, you will usually experience heavy, period-like bleeding and pass blood clots. At times, these clots can be quite large. This can be a normal part of a non-surgical abortion, but if you ever feel unsure or worried, you can reach out to our team for guidance. At Parkmed NYC, we have highly trained, compassionate staff available 24 hours a day to support you and answer your questions throughout the abortion pill process. You are encouraged to call anytime, day or night, seven days a week. You are not alone during this experience.

It is very important to watch the amount of bleeding you are having. If you are completely soaking through more than two maxi pads per hour for two hours in a row, contact Parkmed NYC as soon as possible. This amount of bleeding is considered heavy and could be a sign of a serious problem that requires prompt medical attention.

As part of your medical abortion care, it is our practice to prescribe preventive (prophylactic) antibiotics. You should take the first dose when you begin to bleed, as instructed, to help reduce the risk of infection. Because your cervix is slightly open during the process, taking antibiotics as directed is an important part of protecting your health.

The pregnancy tissue usually passes without being clearly noticed because you are still early in the pregnancy. It may appear as a larger blood clot or may be seen as a small, whitish piece of tissue. This can be normal. Try not to be alarmed if you think you see the pregnancy tissue. However, simply seeing tissue pass does not guarantee that the process is 100% complete. The only way to confirm that the medical abortion is fully successful is through your follow-up visit and any recommended testing.

If at any point during this process you develop a fever higher than 100.4°F (38°C) for more than 24 hours, or if you have vomiting that lasts four to six hours or longer, please contact the clinic right away to speak with a nurse or doctor. These symptoms can be signs that you need additional medical evaluation.

After the pregnancy tissue has passed, it is common to have period-like bleeding for several days or even weeks. Light to moderate bleeding and spotting during this time is usually normal. However, if the bleeding becomes heavy again, or if you are concerned about the amount or duration of bleeding, you should contact our clinic. We may recommend that you come in earlier than planned for follow-up care to make sure you are healing properly and that the medical abortion is complete.

Throughout your non-surgical abortion with the abortion pill at Parkmed NYC, our priority is your safety, comfort, and peace of mind. We encourage you to stay in touch with us, ask questions, and let us know how you are feeling at every stage of the process.

The Follow-Up Visit After a Non-Surgical (Medical) Abortion

About 14 to 21 days after completing the first two steps of the non-surgical abortion process, you will need to return to Parkmed NYC for a follow-up visit. This appointment is a critical part of the abortion pill / medical abortion process and is required to make sure that the pregnancy has ended safely and completely.

During this visit, the medical team will perform:

  • A urine pregnancy test to confirm that your pregnancy hormone levels have returned to a non-pregnant range.
  • A sonogram (ultrasound) so the doctor can see inside the uterus and verify that there is no remaining pregnancy tissue or excess blood.
  • A physical examination by the doctor to check your healing and overall well-being.

You may still notice some light spotting or mild bleeding at this time, and that can be normal. However, it is still very important to come in for your follow-up visit, even if you feel fine. Only through testing and examination can your doctor confirm that:

  • You are no longer pregnant, and
  • There is no tissue remaining in your uterus.

Once the doctor has reviewed your tests and examined you, they will let you know when the abortion by pill / medical abortion process is officially complete. This visit is also a good opportunity to ask any remaining questions, talk about how you are feeling physically and emotionally, and discuss future birth control options if you wish.

How Much Is the Abortion Pill (Medical Abortion) at Parkmed NYC?

The abortion pill (medical abortion) is available at Parkmed NYC during the first trimester, provided you meet the medical criteria to be a good candidate. Many health insurance plans will cover some or all of the cost of a medical abortion, depending on your specific policy and benefits.

At Parkmed NYC, there are no hidden fees. We believe that anyone choosing a medical abortion / abortion by pill should understand the costs up front and should not face unnecessary financial barriers. Our team will review your insurance coverage, help you understand any deductible or copay, and clearly explain all fees before your visit.

For patients who are cash-paying or have an insurance deductible that has not been met, the cost of the abortion pill is designed to be reasonable and affordable. We are committed to working with you so that cost is not the only factor in your ability to access safe, high-quality abortion care.
