The Abortion Pill in New Orleans, LA

In most cases, a telehealth appointment is required and the medication for the abortion is sent directly to you without an in-person physical examination and ultrasound. An ultrasound is important because:

  • it dates the pregnancy, so you know how far along you are (the abortion pill is available up to 10 weeks after the first day of your last menstrual period)
  • rules out ectopic pregnancy
  • determines viability (up to 1 in 4 known pregnancies end in miscarriage).

At Care Pregnancy Clinic we will provide a no-cost diagnostic ultrasound screening conducted by a licensed medical professional. The ultrasound is part of our pre-abortion screening at no cost to you.

The steps by mail-order generally include booking an online appointment for a telehealth visit where you will speak with a provider and answer questions. If you meet their criteria, you receive the pills by mail within 24 – 72 hours. You then start the abortion pill procedure at home and follow-up with a telehealth clinician. Some online providers require only a questionnaire to be submitted and no follow-up telehealth visit. The cost may be lower, but the risks may be higher.

In either case, it is important that you have a pre-abortion screening before making your decision. At the Care Pregnancy Clinic, our licensed medical professionals will conduct the screening, and our staff can discuss your results with you.

You are not alone. Care Pregnancy Clinic wants to help you find the answers to your questions. At no cost to you, a medical professional will talk with you about your abortion options. All of our services are confidential and at no cost to you.

Be Sure You Are Pregnant

Before getting any type of abortion, medically confirm that you are pregnant and how far you are into the pregnancy. Even if you have pregnancy symptoms or have taken a home test, medical confirmation is necessary before any further action is taken.

Is Your Pregnancy Viable?

Did you know that 15-20% of all pregnancies end naturally in miscarriage because such pregnancies are not viable? If you are pregnant, a urine pregnancy test alone will not tell if you fall in that category. If you have a positive result at our clinic, we will provide a diagnostic ultrasound screening to determine whether your pregnancy is viable. An ultrasound can tell you if your pregnancy is in the uterus, determine the gestational age and confirm cardiac activity. A medical professional will answer any questions you might have and help you navigate your next steps. No pressure, no stress, no drama…just answers.

Abortion & STI'S in New Orleans, LA

Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI’s) pose a serious risk to a woman’s future reproductive and overall health, especially if left untreated. According to the Centers for Disease Control in the United States, any abortion procedure (including medical abortion) opens the risk of transmitting bacteria from outside the woman’s body or from the vagina into the woman’s cervix.

If you feel you are experiencing symptoms of an STI, please allow us to help you with a no-cost STI screening. It’s important to remember that not all STIs produce noticeable symptoms; therefore, it’s recommended that you get tested for STIs regularly if you are sexually active with new or multiple partners.

For mail order, in most cases, a telehealth appointment is required and the medication for the abortion is sent directly to you without an in-person physical examination. However, mailing the abortion pill to Louisiana is illegal and may result in legal action.

A: Since the abortion pill can only be obtained illegally in Louisiana, there is an increased risk in ordering through an unreputable organization. If a complication occurs, which happens fairly often, the company will be unable to offer support.


The abortion pill by mail requires no physical exam or ultrasound prior to taking the pills. This can place you at greater risk for complications. At Care Pregnancy Clinic we can provide a limited OB diagnostic ultrasound screening prior to your abortion decision to determine how far along you are, if your pregnancy is viable (20 – 25% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage), and rule-out an ectopic pregnancy which can be life-threatening.

A: Potential risks include heavy bleeding, incomplete abortion, infection, or other complications similar to those associated with in-person medication abortion. These risks increase without a physical exam or OB ultrasound to determine fetal age, viability and to rule out ectopic pregnancy which can be life-threatening. At Care Pregnancy Clinic we can provide you with a consultation and diagnostic ultrasound screening at no-cost to you.
