# How Much Does an Abortion Cost?

![How Much Does an Abortion Cost?](https://lifechoicescenter.org/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/iStock-133897219.jpg)

How Much Is An Abortion? When considering an abortion, it’s important to factor in the associated costs. Here’s a straightforward guide to help you understand the potential expenses and explore your options. Need answers now? Text anonymously with a care expert during office hours for free at [607-357-8030](sms:+16073578030).

 

#### Do I need an Ultrasound?

Getting an ultrasound is a critical step in the process. An ultrasound helps determine how far along you are in your pregnancy, which directly affects the cost and safety of the procedure. To ensure you have accurate information, [schedule your free pregnancy test](https://lifechoicescenter.org/request-appointment)to see if you qualify for a referral for a free, on-site, limited, non-diagnostic, first-trimester ultrasound.

 

#### Types of Abortion

There are two primary types of abortion: surgical and medical. Your choice will depend on how far along you are in your pregnancy and the laws in your state.

- **Surgical Abortion:** This procedure is performed by a doctor to remove the pregnancy.1 Typically done in a clinic, it tends to be more costly.
- **Medical Abortion (Abortion Pill):** This involves taking medication to terminate the pregnancy.2 **It’s only approved as an option by the FDA within the first 70 days of conception**.

 

## Cost of an Abortion

- **Surgical Abortion:** The cost typically ranges from $800 to $2,000, though it may exceed this amount due to factors like travel expenses, medications, and differences in insurance coverage, as reported by providers in 2024.3 If surgical abortions are prohibited in your state, traveling to another state for the procedure can significantly increase the overall expense.

- **Abortion Pill:** The price of the abortion pill varies widely, from free to $800. Additional costs may arise if expedited shipping is required for online orders, especially from international sources. The legal status of the pill in your area can further complicate the process and introduce additional risks.

 

### Risks of Ordering the Abortion Pill Online

Ordering the abortion pill online, whether it’s legal in your state or not, comes with significant risks—both medically and legally. Pills purchased from unregulated international sellers, especially those not approved by the FDA, can pose serious health hazards.4

Additionally, taking the abortion pill without confirming your pregnancy with a medical-grade test can be harmful if you’re not actually pregnant. False positives on at-home pregnancy tests do occur, so it’s essential to confirm your pregnancy. [You can schedule a free pregnancy test here for accurate results](https://lifechoicescenter.org/free-pregnancy-tests-binghamton-ny).

Self-administering the abortion pill without medical supervision increases the risk of misuse and severe complications.5 Seeking professional guidance is crucial for your safety.

Did you know that between 10% and 20% of all known pregnancies end in miscarriage?6 If you’re considering abortion, you may not need to make that decision. An ultrasound can help determine the viability of your pregnancy.
