Same-Day Abortion in London? 2025 Options & Fast Access Guide

Last updated: June 18, 2025

If you’re looking for same-day abortion care in London, you’re not alone. 

Many women confirm a pregnancy around 5–6 weeks, leaving just a few weeks to decide. 

Many of our patients contact us around 6 or 7 weeks pregnant - just after confirming their result. The most common worry? That they’ll run out of time or face delays trying to get care through the NHS. That’s why we prioritise same-day support and next-day delivery - so you don’t lose time waiting for appointments.

Whether you're considering abortion pills or in-clinic options, this 2025 guide explains how to get fast, safe care: from NHS timelines to private clinics offering same-day consultations and discreet next-day delivery.

‍

Can You Get a Same-Day Abortion in London?

Yes. Private clinics like Top at Home offer same-day virtual consultations and next-day abortion pill delivery across London. You must be under 10 weeks pregnant and medically eligible for pills by post.

Same-day abortion access in the UK depends on a few factors:

• Type of abortion (abortion pills vs surgery)
• Eligibility (must be under 10 weeks gestation for pills by post)
• The provider’s process and availability

In the UK, medical abortion using pills is legally available up to 9 weeks and 6 days. Some digital clinics offer same-day consultations and next-day delivery if you're eligible.

NHS vs Private Options in London

NHS Services (e.g. BPAS, MSI):

• Free care for UK residents
• Wait times in London typically 1–3 weeks
• GP referral or online self-referral may be required
• Limited appointment hours (Mon–Fri, 9–5)

If you're facing a time-sensitive decision, this timeline may not be fast enough.

‍

Private Clinics (e.g. Top at Home):

• Same-day virtual consultations, 7 days a week
• Next-day delivery of abortion pills (if eligible)
• No clinic visit required for most patients
• Discreet packaging, no GP involvement

We also offer in-person consultations at our London clinic for those who prefer face-to-face care.

‍

Is Same-Day Abortion Right for Me?

Ask yourself:

• Are you under 10 weeks pregnant? (Required for abortion pills by post)
• Do you have a private space for rest and recovery?
• Would you prefer to avoid NHS involvement or delays?
• Do you want a virtual or in-person option?

If you answered yes to most of the above, private same-day care might be your best option.
