Abortion available until 14 weeks of pregnancy
- Everyone in Alaska has the legal right to an abortion at any stage of pregnancy. But most providers in Alaska are only performing abortions up until 14 weeks of pregnancy, unless there is an emergency. You can learn more about emergency medical treatment under Getting the medical care you need on our Legal Rights and Risk page.
- Except for emergencies, anyone having an abortion in Alaska must:
- get counseling with an abortion provider and put in writing that it happened; and
- reside or be physically in Alaska for 30 days before the abortion.
- No matter your age, you have the constitutional right to travel to another state where abortions are still being legally provided.
Telehealth
- Medication abortion (an abortion with pills) is available by telehealth in Alaska. This means you can meet with a doctor by video call who will prescribe and mail you abortion pills. For more information, go to abortionfinder.org or ineedana.com.
Self-managed abortion is not a crime in Alaska. But what the law says and what happens in reality can be very different. If you have questions about your legal rights and risk, call 844-868-2812 or contact us through our secure form to speak with a lawyer.
