FAQs about Abortion Pills
Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I get abortion pills in Singapore?
You should obtain abortion pills from proper and legitimate sources, such as accredited medical clinics and hospitals. It is strongly advised to avoid purchasing abortion pills from online sources or unregulated vendors, as the legitimacy and safety of such products cannot be guaranteed.
How does a doctor determine the right medical abortion regime for me?
This will depend on the following factors, among others:
- The size of your present pregnancy
- Your body weight
- The level of your pregnancy hormones
- The history of your pregnancies and outcomes
- Your budget (simpler regimens would be less costly but also less successful)
- How to adjust treatment depending on your response to the medicines

Can I just buy the abortion pill and take it at home myself without seeing a doctor?
You should not take the abortion pill without consulting a doctor as a self-managed and unsupervised medical abortion can result in serious complications.
With a special interest in abortion care, Dr Jen Shek Wei has over 30 years of experience in ensuring the safe and effective termination of pregnancy.
What if my pregnancy has exceeded around 7 weeks?
If your pregnancy is already more than 7 weeks, then a medical abortion may not be the best option as it may result in more complications and lower efficacy. At our clinic, we are accredited to offer both medical and surgical abortion in a safe, well-equipped and supportive setting.
How do I know if the abortion pill worked?
Experiencing heavy bleeding and cramping following the abortion pill may indicate the abortion process has begun, but it does not necessarily guarantee completion; consulting a gynaecologist for an ultrasound scan is recommended to verify that the abortion is complete.
Are there any side effects of taking the abortion pill?
Like all medications, the abortion pill comes with side effects, the most common of which include cramping and bleeding. To manage these symptoms, it's important to consult a gynaecologist who can closely monitor your situation and advise you throughout the process.
Should I opt for the abortion pill or surgery?
Abortion in Singapore can be carried out either by the abortion pill or surgery. While the abortion pill may be a more affordable option, surgery is considered safer, faster and more comfortable.
Ultimately, the decision to terminate a pregnancy – and its means of doing so – is a personal one. Should you feel unsure, speak with our doctor for personalised advice to help you make an informed decision.
