In-Clinic Abortion Procedures
Abortion is a medical procedure that ends a pregnancy. In-clinic abortion procedures are safe and effective.
In-clinic abortions are some time called surgical abortions, though they’re generally an in-office procedure, not surgery.
Aspiration abortion (also called vacuum aspiration) is the most common type of in-clinic abortion. It uses gentle suction to empty your uterus.
It’s usually used until 16 weeks after your last period.
How Does In-Clinic Abortions Works
n-clinic abortion works by using suction to take a pregnancy out of your uterus.
There are a couple of kinds of in-clinic abortion procedures. Our doctor or nurse will know which type is right for you, depending on how far you are into your pregnancy.
In-clinic Abortion Procedures
Our nurse or doctor will discuss your options with you. You’ll also get antibiotics to help prevent infections.
A nurse or doctor may give you medication to help open your cervix before your abortion. Depending on the type of abortion, they may put small dilator sticks called laminaria into the opening of your cervix a day or a few hours before your procedure to slowly stretch your cervix open.
Our staff will be in the procedure room the whole time. Their job is to support you and help the doctor or nurse during your abortion.
Does An Abortion Hurt?
Having an abortion feels different for everyone. Your level of discomfort can depend on the medications you get, how far into your pregnancy you are, and how much cramping and pain you have. For most people, it feels like strong period cramps.
Our doctors and nurses will help make your abortion as comfortable as possible. You’ll get pain and numbing medications that will make it hurt less and you may get sedation.
You may have a little cramping after your abortion. You’ll probably want to take it easy for a while afterward, but most people feel back to normal the next day.
