Located in Missoula, Montana, we respectfully offer safe, compassionate, and confidential care to meet the individualized needs of our patients. 

You have options for abortion care:

  1. Medication Abortion, sometimes called the abortion pill, is offered up to 12 weeks in pregnancy. This type of abortion uses medication to end a pregnancy and takes place at home.
  2. Procedural Abortion is a safe medical procedure that gently empties the uterus and removes the pregnancy. At Blue Mountain Clinic, we offer the in-clinic procedure up to 20 weeks and 6 days in pregnancy as a single-day appointment.

To schedule an appointment, please fill out our appointment request form or call Blue Mountain Clinic with any questions about our services.

Abortion Care Overview

Deciding Between Medication & Procedural Abortion

While abortion is legal in Montana up to 22-24 weeks, Blue Mountain Clinic provides abortion services for patients through 21 weeks. (If you think you are more than 21 weeks pregnant, the caring staff at BMC can help direct you to services that can assist you.) You can find more information on types of abortions, what to expect, and additional information below.

Medication Abortion

A medication abortion is the use of pills to end a pregnancy safely and effectively at home (or wherever is comfortable for you). At Blue Mountain Clinic, you can choose a medication abortion up to 12 weeks after the first day of your last menstrual period. Please refer to our step-by-step guide for more information.

Some people choose a medication abortion because:

  • The abortion happens at home, at a time that works for you and your schedule, which may feel more private or comfortable and give you more control over the process. 
  • You can have a partner, BFF, parent, pet or any support with you while the abortion happens. You can also do it on your own if that works better for you.  
  • It may feel more like a “natural” process for some people because the experience is similar to a miscarriage.

In-Clinic Procedural Abortion

An outpatient, “in-clinic” abortion procedure is a safe method of ending a pregnancy. At Blue Mountain Clinic, we offer in-clinic abortion procedures up to 20 weeks and 6 days in pregnancy.

A procedural abortion is a medical procedure that uses light suction, and in some cases sterile instruments, to gently empty the uterus. The procedure is offered as a single-day appointment and most people return to work, school, or other regular activities the next day. Learn more about what to expect or view our step-by-step guide.

Some people choose a procedural abortion because:

  • The abortion procedure occurs in one office visit. 
  • We confirm you are longer pregnant before leaving. 
  • The entire procedure lasts approximately 10-15 minutes (which is often the quickest part of the scheduled appointment). 
  • There is an option of mild sedation during the procedure so long as the patient has a confirmed driver to take them home. 
  • Some people feel more comfortable in the clinic setting.
