The Mayo Clinic web site notes that medical abortion is not an option for a woman if you:

  • Are too far along in your pregnancy.
  • Have an intrauterine device (IUD).
  • Have a suspected pregnancy outside of the uterus (ectopic pregnancy).
  • Have certain medical conditions.
  • Take a blood thinner or certain steroid medications.
  • Can’t make follow-up visits to your doctor or don’t have access to emergency care.
  • Have an allergy to the medications used.

If you are seeking a medical abortion and have any of the criteria above, you may not be eligible for a medical abortion.  If you have concerns about the abortion procedure or what these criteria mean, text us: 443-333-8856.
