The Abortion Pill
If you are considering the abortion pill, contact us for a free consultation to learn more about what to expect and the steps you should take prior to an abortion. The abortion pill is not an option if:
-
you are further than 10 weeks
-
you have certain medical conditions
-
the pregnancy is not viable
-
the pregnancy occurs outside of the uterus (ectopic)
It's important to rule out an ectopic pregnancy or a natural miscarriage and find out how far along you are via ultrasound. Conception calculators can only estimate a potential due date. Contact us for a free ultrasound referral and to learn more about abortion pills and your options.
Note: The abortion pill goes by many names including missed period pills, at-home abortion, self-managed abortion, 10-week-after pills, medication, medical, or chemical abortion. It is not the same as emergency contraceptives. The FDA issued a warning about abortion by mail and new safety regulations. Your health and safety come first here. Contact us to learn more.
Does an abortion hurt?
Abortion side effects vary from person to person and can depend on the procedure. Pain can include mild or intense cramping, nausea or vomiting, and pain due to uterine contractions. During an aspiration abortion, some women describe a pulling sensation. Women are given pain medication to manage side effects.
