If you’re considering an abortion by mail, you’re not alone. More people are choosing to end early pregnancies safely and privately in the comfort of their own homes. With discreet delivery of FDA-approved abortion pills and virtual support from licensed providers, at-home medication abortion has become a trusted and convenient option especially for those who value privacy, comfort, and autonomy.
At Serenity Choice Health, we offer compassionate telehealth abortion services in Illinois, New York, and Wyoming, helping you make informed decisions with confidence and clarity.
What Is Abortion by Mail?
Abortion by mail, also known as medication abortion at home involves receiving two FDA-approved medications: mifepristone and misoprostol. These pills are prescribed by a licensed medical provider after an online consultation and mailed directly to your door in discreet packaging.
This option is available to patients in IL, NY, and WY, typically within the first 10–11 weeks of pregnancy.
This method is:
- Up to 98% effective
- Clinically proven over decades of use
- Non-invasive, private, and safe
Is It Safe?
Yes. Medication abortion by mail is one of the safest options available for early pregnancy termination. The process mimics a natural miscarriage and carries a very low risk of complications. No surgery or anesthesia is needed.
What to expect physically:
- Cramping and bleeding usually begin a few hours after taking the second medication.
- Most people complete the process within 4–6 hours.
- Lighter bleeding may continue for a week or two.
- A follow-up pregnancy test after 4 weeks confirms that the abortion was successful.
Serenity’s licensed medical team provides guidance throughout the process to ensure your safety and peace of mind.
Is It Legal in Your State?

In these states, Serenity Choice Health provides telehealth abortion care that complies with all local laws, allowing you to safely access abortion pills without needing an in-person clinic visit.
