Do you make referrals for abortions?

Ember Rising does not provide or refer for abortions, prescribe abortion medication, or provide birth control or IUDs. Ember Rising provides free pregnancy health services designed for the time before an abortion, including pregnancy testing, ultrasound services, and personalized medical information.

Why should I come here before my abortion appointment?

Ember Rising provides free pregnancy confirmation services, including pregnancy testing and same-day ultrasounds when appropriate, along with private conversations and ongoing resources. These services can help you better understand your pregnancy, health, and individual circumstances before an abortion.

Why should I get an ultrasound if I want an abortion?

An ultrasound before an abortion can provide information about how far along the pregnancy is, whether the pregnancy is progressing, and whether it is located in the uterus. Gestational age and pregnancy location can affect what medical care may be appropriate.

Are all abortion providers the same?

Medical credentials, experience, policies, and approaches to care can vary between abortion providers. Before an abortion, patients may want to ask about the medical professional providing care, emergency procedures, follow-up care, and what happens if complications occur.

Before an abortion, an ultrasound can answer three important questions:

How far along am I?
Gestational age can affect your options and what to expect.

Is the pregnancy progressing?
Not every pregnancy develops normally. An ultrasound can identify concerns that may require emergency medical care.

Is the pregnancy in the right location?
An ultrasound can help identify an ectopic pregnancy, which requires different medical care and cannot be treated with abortion pills.
Not every abortion provider has the same medical credentials, experience, or approach to patient care. Before moving forward, it's okay to pause and ask questions so you understand exactly what to expect.

Some of the most important questions include:
- Does your doctor have admitting rights to your local hospital in case of complications?
- Who will be providing my care, and what are their medical qualifications?
- What should you do if the abortion fails or the doctor fails to remove all fetal tissue?
During your appointment, we'll walk through a more comprehensive list of questions you may want to ask.
