Telemedicine Abortion in South Africa – Safe & Discreet Pills Delivered to Your Door
Marie Stopes provides a safe, confidential telemedicine abortion service for women under 9 weeks of pregnancy. Consult with our nurses from the comfort of your home and receive your abortion pills discreetly. If you are over 9 weeks pregnancy, please look at our same day surgical abortion which is available to you up to 20 weeks of pregnancy.
What is a Telemedicine Abortion?
Telehealth for abortion pills involves a remote consultation with our nurses, providing access to the medications—mifepristone and misoprostol—necessary to end a pregnancy. Mifepristone blocks progesterone, a key hormone for pregnancy, while misoprostol induces uterine cramping, mimicking a period-like process to remove the pregnancy.
How does a telemedicine abortion work?
- Telephonic Consultation: Approximately 20 minutes with our nurse.
- Collect In Centre or Home Delivery: Eligible patients receive the prescribed pills discreetly.
Before You Call:
