We’re here to support you, whatever choice you make about your pregnancy, so you never have to feel alone
Abortion is a safe and legal way to end a pregnancy. There are two methods of abortion available to women in the first trimester of pregnancy. A medication abortion (also called medical abortion or abortion with pills) involves taking medicines to end a pregnancy. An aspiration abortion (also called surgical or suction abortion) is a procedure that uses medical instruments in the vagina and uterus to remove the pregnancy. The information below compares the two methods. HOW FAR ALONG IN THE PREGNANCY CAN I BE? Medication Abortion: Up to ten weeks from the first day of your last period. Aspiration Abortion: Up to 12 weeks from the first day of your last period
Medical Termination is a form of early Termination caused by the combination of two Termination pills. A pregnancy test has to be performed to confirm that you are pregnant. Preferably if you can afford we recommend a scan to detect the health of the fetus if it is in the normal position. After the doctor has confirmed the pregnancy, You will be given a pill to swallow which is meant to block the hormone called (Progesterone) that is needed to maintain the pregnancy. Because this hormone is blocked, the uterine lining begins to shed, hence softening the cervix. After a few hours, another set of tablets will be placed in the vagina. You can place the tablets yourself or have a healthcare professional place them.These pills will cause you to have cramps and bleeding. This usually starts about 2 hours after using the pills but may start sooner. Bleeding and cramping usually last a few hours. You may see large blood clots or tissue at the time of the Termination and you will probably need pain medicine. Most women pass the pregnancy within 4 or 5 hours after taking the pills. For others it can be quicker or take longer.
