HOW MUCH IS THE COST OF ABORTION IN SOUTH AFRICA?

There is no standard cost for accessing an abortion. In general terms, abortion cost can range between R500 - R2500 depending where you go.

 

Why such a big range?

The type of abortion you opt for;

The abortion pill may have a different cost than an in-clinic abortion.

 

How far along your pregnancy;

The longer you’ve been pregnant, the more your abortion may cost.
