How Much Does an Abortion Cost?

Considering an abortion often involves many factors — including cost. The total expense can vary depending on how far along you are, the type of procedure, travel, and insurance coverage.

Do I Need An Ultrasound?

An important step before making any decision is confirming how far along you are. An ultrasound helps determine gestational age and whether the pregnancy is developing. This information can impact both your options and potential costs.

Ember Rising provides free pregnancy testing and can help you schedule a no-cost ultrasound referral in Wichita. If cost is a concern, we work to remove that barrier.

You don’t have to figure this out alone. Schedule a free appointment to get clear information and a plan for your next step.

Types Of Abortion

There are two primary types of abortion: surgical and medical. The option available depends on how far along you are and state regulations.

A surgical abortion is a procedure performed by a physician to remove the pregnancy.¹ It is typically done in a clinic setting and costs can increase as pregnancy progresses.
A medical abortion (often called the abortion pill) involves taking two medications to end an early pregnancy.² The FDA approves this method for use up to 70 days (10 weeks) of pregnancy.

Understanding how far along you are is essential before determining what options may be available.

Cost Of An Abortion

Surgical Abortion

Costs often range from several hundred to a few thousand dollars, depending on gestational age, provider fees, anesthesia, medications, and insurance coverage. Travel expenses may also increase the total cost.

Abortion Pill

Prices can vary widely, sometimes ranging from free through certain organizations to several hundred dollars. Additional expenses may include consultation fees, follow-up care, or travel. Availability and regulations differ by state.

Because costs depend heavily on how far along you are, confirming your pregnancy details first can prevent unnecessary expenses.

Risks Of Ordering The Abortion Pill Online

Ordering medication online — especially from unverified or international sources — can carry legal and medical risks.³ Medications not regulated by the FDA may be unsafe or ineffective.

Taking abortion medication without confirming the pregnancy’s location or gestational age can also be dangerous. For example, an ectopic pregnancy cannot be treated with abortion pills and requires immediate medical care.⁴

It’s important to confirm your pregnancy with reliable testing and, when recommended, an ultrasound before taking any medication.

Did you know that between 10%–20% of known pregnancies end in miscarriage?⁴ Confirming whether a pregnancy is developing can help you avoid unnecessary procedures.
