Hi, My Name Is Lindsey.

Hi. I'm Lindsey and I had a medication abortion in Tennessee in 2016.

I found out I was pregnant when I missed my period and took a test, and my first thought was, "I'm not ready to have another baby.” I decided to have a medication abortion because I already had my hands totally full with work and being a mom.

I received my abortion pills through a clinic.

From start to finish, the process was private and straightforward. I took the pills at home, and I felt nervous and unsure of what to expect. What surprised me most was how quickly the process worked.

Because I had access to medication abortion, I was able to take care of my needs on my schedule, in the comfort of my home. I felt in control of my future.

I'm sharing my story because every person deserves control of their body and their future. Medication abortion is critically needed health care.

Medication abortion is a right.
