Comprehensive Guide to Understanding
the Abortion Pill Options

We understand 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 are available for Termination of Pregnancy.

Medical Abortion Pill

Non-surgical option available up to 10 weeks of pregnancy. Safe, effective, private, and convenient, can be completed at home. Free abortion pills for low-income patients without insurance.

Surgical Abortion

Safe and gentle procedures performed by experienced physicians. Available for pregnancies up to 24 weeks. Various sedation options to ensure your comfort. Quick recovery time.

Abortion Pill

Medication abortion is a preferred option for women who want to avoid surgery. It is more effective than surgical abortion for pregnancies up to 70 days. It is also suitable for women with congenital uterine deformities or cervical narrowing.

Trusted Abortion Pill Care – Hear from
Our Patients

This is an amazing resource for women’s health care!! The staff was so incredibly helpful and made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in.

The wait was surprisingly short and they don’t overbook so the lobby is very calm. I recommend this clinic for people from all economic backgrounds. I didn’t have insurance and they submitted an emergency mediCal request so the entire visit was covered. This will be my go-to from now on

The staff were very kind and all were working very hard hard to address all the patients there. I was able to get a same day appointment. Cindy was doing so much to keep the patient flow moving. I really appreciate the care I received here. I wish they could get more funding to upgrade their facility a bit, but the office was definitely clean.

I was a walk in and they worked with me and they find ways to help if you can’t financially afford treatment. They listened to me and my needs and were very sweet and attentive. I will be coming here over planned parenthood any day really loved the staff, the front desk the nurse practitioners everyone was so kind which makes experiences like family planning much more enjoyable. ——oh also wanted to add there is parking on Chicago street and it’s 50c an hour so it’s pretty convenient.

After researching up so many clinics, I decided to go to Her Smart Choice. All the medical staff members and doctor himself were friendly and understanding. No one was judgemental and questioned my decision. They answered all and any questions I had. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience. You guys are amazing. Thank you!

Pre-abortion Pill Procedures

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 Pate)
Measurement of vital signs (Temperature, Pulse, Blood Pressure, Respiratory Pate)
Blood grouping
Lab tests for sexually transmitted diseases

Abortion can be a mentally stressful procedure, so counseling holds an important place in pre-abortion procedures. 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 main objectives of this counseling are to:

How this regimen is used (FDA regimen)

During the initial visit, history is taken and examination of the woman is done followed by pre-abortion counseling and investigations.

Once the consent is obtained and contraindications are excluded, a tablet containing 200 mg of Mifepristone (RU-486) is given orally to the woman and advised to re-visit on day 2-or 3.

She is given the second tablet containing misoprostol (800 micrograms) on day 2 or 3 at the clinic. Usually following consumption of the second tablet, there will be bleeding from the vagina and cramps will be felt in the abdomen.

This is due to the contraction of the uterus and expulsion of aborted products of pregnancy. Antibiotics may also be given to prevent the infection. A pain killer medicine can be given to alleviate the pain.

She is advised to visit on day 15 for re-examination and to ascertain that the abortion is complete.

It also gives an opportunity for a doctor to check the health status of the woman. Call us to find out the contraindications of the regimen.

What laws affect medical abortion?

Minors generally require parental consent, but it is also important to find out about abortion laws relevant to your state of residence.

What is the role of anti-D in medical abortion?

Women who are rhesus negative would need to receive this anti-D immunoglobulin after a medical abortion to prevent miscarriages in subsequent pregnancies.

What happens after taking the second tablet?

After taking the second tablet, you may feel abdominal cramps as you begin passing the products of pregnancy. You may take pain killers to relax you and allow the pill to work.

Should I take a bath after abortion?

Consult your doctor on this matter. You may be advised not to take a bath immediately. This is to prevent infection due to water entering the exposed area.

Should I do a pregnancy test after abortion?

You may choose to do so, but remember that it can take 40-60 days before the pregnancy test becomes negative. If you take a test immediately afterwards, you will still get a positive result.

What about the confidentiality of the procedure?

If you are working with qualified doctors and nurses, they will always maintain patient confidentiality. There is no need of worry about your privacy or information being leaked.
