Considering Abortion?
We’re here to help you make an informed choice.
Are You Sure You Are Really Pregnant?
Before you make an abortion appointment, be sure you are really pregnant. We offer free medical-grade pregnancy tests to help you confirm your pregnancy. If your test is positive, you may qualify for ultrasound at no cost to you, to determine how far along you are and the viability of your pregnancy. Our staff will discuss your personal situation and get answers to any questions you may have. Make your appointment today.
Understand Abortion
Often, women who consider abortion know little about the different abortion procedures and what they may experience with an abortion. You deserve to know the facts and be fully informed.
Abortion is a serious medical procedure with side effects and risks. If you are considering abortion for your unexpected pregnancy, we want you to make an informed decision, find out about the procedures first.
We will review with you A Woman’s Right to Know Booklet (PDF) which includes: Conception, Abortion Risks, Abortion Procedures and Side Effects, After An Abortion, Pregnancy and Childbirth, and Adoption Services.
Considering the Abortion Pill?
The abortion pill—also referred to as medical abortion, chemical abortion, or self-managed abortion is usually used to reference the two-pill process that includes medications taken to terminate the pregnancy of a developing baby within the first 10 weeks. It is NOT the morning-after pill.
The first pill is prescribed within the first seven to ten weeks of pregnancy and given at the office visit to block the effects of progesterone. Progesterone is an essential hormone which women naturally produce that provides vital nutrients needed for the developing baby to thrive. Without progesterone, pregnancies will fail. The second drug is taken at home 6-48 hours later and causes cramping and bleeding in order to empty the uterus and expel the baby. Abortion Pill Reversal
