  • How can I get my package?

    After an abortion, you will be fully able to get pregnant again. On average, it takes 10 days for your fertility to return. So, if you want to avoid getting pregnant, we recommend you use a long-term contraceptive method like an IUD combined with a barrier method, such as a condom, and thus have double protection.

  • How does Telefem’s personalized advice work?

    Your first contact with Telefem will be through a counselor, who will answer all your questions about the procedure and, depending on how long you have been pregnant, decide whether or not to pass you on to one of our health professionals.

    When you see our professionals, they will determine whether you need to have a test to check the number of weeks of your pregnancy and to make sure it is not an ectopic pregnancy.

    Then our health professional will send you a payment link.

    Once your payment appears, you will be sent the package to the address in Mexico you have provided or to a mailing address.

  • Is an abortion painful?

    It is normal to worry about pain, particularly in the case of something as unique as the interruption of a pregnancy. The answer in this case is simple: just as with menstruation, everyone experiences a different level of pain or discomfort during the process. Some women find the abortion procedure causes them to experience cramps that gradually diminish as the hours go by. This should not be cause for concern, as our medical care team will prepare and help you cope as well as possible with this experience.

  • How long after an abortion can I get pregnant again?

    You are entirely capable of getting pregnant after an abortion. On average, fertility returns after 10 days. So, if you want to avoid getting pregnant, we recommend you use a long-term contraceptive method like an IUD combined with a barrier method, such as a condom, and thus have double protection.

    What is the difference between medical abortion pills and the emergency contraceptive pill?

    The former, as their name implies, interrupt a pregnancy and you need to take more than one pill, whereas the latter, the morning-after pill, is a contraceptive method that is taken to prevent conception.

    To understand this difference it is important to consider that pregnancy does not occur immediately after you have sexual relations. The sperm and egg can take up to six days to fertilize, in other words, come together. Emergency contraception, such as the morning-after pill, works in a variety of ways to prevent pregnancy, but does not interrupt an existing pregnancy.

  • How do medical abortion pills work?

    These pills work by blocking progesterone receptors and detaching the gestational sac. Once it is detached, rhythmic contractions start and the cervix dilates to expel the contents.

  • What does Telefem's package contain?

    Mifepristone 200 mg

    Misoprostol 200 mcg (8 tablets)

    Ibuprofen 600 mg (4 capsules)

  • Is the pregnancy termination procedure safe? What are the risks?

    This procedure is up to 98% effective, extremely safe and complications are very rare.
