Considering an Abortion? pill huntington park
Unwanted pregnancy can put a lot of stress on the physical and mental health of a woman. In
such situations, Termination of Pregnancy (TOP) or abortion can be a blessing for her. The
termination can be safely performed until the end of the second trimester as per state law. There are
two types of procedures available for Termination of Pregnancy:
● Medical Abortion: Use of medicines for termination of pregnancy up to 10 weeks or 70 days.
● Surgical Abortion: Use of surgical methods for termination of pregnancy
Abortion Pill
When to choose medical/chemical abortion?
● If a woman prefers medications over a surgical procedure
● Up to 70 days of pregnancy, it is considered more effective than surgical abortion
● If a woman has congenital deformity of uterus or narrowing of the lower part of uterus (cervix)
● The woman can take some medications at home, which is more convenient
Pre-abortion procedures:
Abortion can be a mentally stressful procedure, so counseling holds an important place in pre-
abortion procedures. The main objectives of this counseling are to:
● Help the woman to make an informed decision
● Provide knowledge about the procedure
● Remove the anxiety related to the procedure
This counseling can be performed by a nurse, doctor or an experienced counselor. During
counseling, the woman is given pregnancy options counseling and informed consent related
counseling. A woman may have a variety of reasons for opting for an abortion. The counseling
helps in making the correct decision without any mental stress. The counseling also gives an
opportunity to prepare the woman for possible adverse effects of the medical abortion.
Your doctor will have to ascertain a few things before he/she can administer the procedure. These
include the following investigations:
● Ultrasound for confirmation of pregnancy and estimation of duration of pregnancy
● Measurement of vital signs (Temperature, Pulse, Blood Pressure, Respiratory Rate)
● Blood grouping
● Lab tests for sexually transmitted diseases
