Some people access abortion pills directly by mail. Read below for more information and check out the Pill Abortion page for more details about abortion with pills.

The same safe abortion pills that clinicians prescribe are now available from vetted online sources.

For medical advice during a medication abortion process, you can get free, accurate and supportive medical advice around the clock through this national hotline: https://mahotline.org/. If you need or someone you know needs follow-up health care after a self-managed medication abortion, you can go to any Planned Parenthood clinic or other trusted healthcare practitioner in Wisconsin for safe and confidential care.

Wisconsin law does not state that taking pills on your own to cause an abortion is illegal.

In some states, people who ended their own pregnancies have been arrested and charged with crimes. Some of those people were convicted and served time in jail, while some had their cases dismissed. You can find free, accurate and supportive legal counsel through this legal helpline.

Even though we are unable to help you access abortion pills directly, the POWERS call line is available for more information and emotional support.
