“How much does an abortion cost in New Zealand?”

This includes:
- Comprehensive consultation
- Pregnancy assessment
- Prescription of abortion medications
- Personalised treatment plan
- Ongoing support
- Follow-up care
- Review of blood results
- Direct access to an experienced midwife throughout your care
We believe in transparent pricing, so you know exactly what to expect.
When Should I Book an Appointment?
If you think you may be pregnant, we encourage you to contact us as soon as possible.
Early medical abortion is generally simpler during the early weeks of pregnancy. Booking an appointment promptly provides the greatest range of treatment options and helps avoid unnecessary delays.
If you’re unsure what to do next, we’re happy to answer your questions and discuss your options confidentially.
What Is an Early Medical Abortion?
An early medical abortion uses two medications to safely end an early pregnancy.
At The Women’s Health Hub, we prescribe the same medications recommended by Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora and used by abortion providers throughout New Zealand.
Treatment involves:
- Mifepristone 200 mg
- followed 36 hours later by Misoprostol
These medications are well established, safe and highly effective when prescribed and used appropriately.
Will I Need an Ultrasound?
Not always.
At The Women’s Health Hub, we follow Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora’s Ultrasound Decision Tool to determine whether an ultrasound is clinically indicated before an early medical abortion.
Many women do not require an ultrasound.
If an ultrasound is recommended, we will organise this for you.
What Blood Tests Are Required?
For most women, the only blood test routinely required is a beta hCG blood test.
A beta hCG blood test is performed before treatment to establish a baseline pregnancy hormone level and repeated 7–10 days after treatment.
A significant reduction in the hormone level confirms that the pregnancy has resolved successfully and that treatment has been effective.
For most women, comprehensive antenatal blood tests are not routinely required for an early medical abortion.
Please note that laboratories generally charge approximately NZ$60 per beta hCG blood test for non-residents.

One final recommendation
I think you should add real photographs throughout the page rather than stock images. A welcoming image of your consultation room, a discreet exterior photo of the clinic, or a professional headshot of you will build trust far more effectively than generic medical images. People seeking abortion care are often looking for reassurance as much as information, and authentic photos help them feel they’re connecting with a real person before they even make contact. That would be the finishing touch to what I think is an excellent, patient-focused page.
