Your Options for Medical Abortion Near Atlanta
Medical abortion, also known as the abortion pill, provides a safe and effective way to end an early pregnancy. This method is FDA-approved for up to 11 weeks of gestation and is trusted by thousands of patients each year. At Meadow Reproductive Health, our approach centers on patient dignity, evidence-based medicine, and clear communication every step of the way.
Whether you are considering a medical abortion for the first time or seeking a provider who truly listens, our experienced clinicians are here to guide you through your options. We serve many patients from Georgia and the broader Southeast who are looking for trusted, confidential abortion care outside their home state.
How Medical Abortion Works
The process for a medication abortion involves taking two medications: mifepristone and misoprostol. The first medication is typically taken at our clinic or during a telehealth appointment. The second is taken in the comfort of your home, following our clear instructions. Most patients experience a process similar to a heavy period, with cramping and bleeding as the pregnancy ends.
- Step 1: Consultation and eligibility assessment (in-person or virtual)
- Step 2: Take mifepristone (blocks pregnancy hormone)
- Step 3: Take misoprostol (induces uterine contractions)
- Step 4: Follow-up support and care
Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions and direct lines of communication if you have questions or concerns at any point.
