Common questions
Still unsure? Send us a WhatsApp and a nurse will answer privately.
Ask a nurse on WhatsAppIs abortion legal in South Africa?
Yes. Under the Choice on Termination of Pregnancy Act (Act 92 of 1996) you can end a pregnancy on request up to 12 weeks. From 13 to 20 weeks it is allowed in specific circumstances, which a doctor will discuss with you.
Is the abortion pill safe?
When it is taken at the right stage of pregnancy with proper medical guidance, the abortion pill is a very safe option. We confirm your dates with a scan first.
How much does it cost?
The price depends on how many weeks pregnant you are and which option suits you. Call or WhatsApp 081 708 5930 for a private quote.
Do I need a parent’s or partner’s permission?
No. You do not need permission from anyone, and we will not contact your family, partner, school or employer.
Can I come to the clinic alone?
Yes. Many women come on their own. You are also welcome to bring someone you trust for support.
Can I come at night or on a weekend?
Yes. We are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and public holidays. Call or WhatsApp ahead so we can be ready for you.
How do I know a clinic is genuine?
A real clinic has a physical address, qualified staff and does a scan before treatment. Be wary of anyone who only sells pills over the phone or meets you in a public place.
