Considering Abortion?
What Should I Do If I’m Considering Abortion?
Before choosing abortion, make sure you understand the procedures, side effects, and possible risks. Despite what you’ve heard, abortion is a serious medical decision with physical and emotional consequences. Get the facts first.
Confirm Your Pregnancy First
There is much more to know than just a positive result on a pregnancy test. You need to verify how far along you are in your pregnancy (gestation). The abortion procedure you qualify for is determined by the length of your pregnancy.
Plus, an ultrasound shows if your pregnancy is viable (progressing) or if you’ve had a miscarriage. Up to 20% of known pregnancies end in a natural miscarriage.
You pay nothing for pregnancy testing, ultrasound scans, and STD testing and treatment at Options.
Types of Abortion
There are two types of abortion: medical and surgical. If you’ve been pregnant for 10 weeks or less, you qualify for the abortion pill, a medical method.
Second-trimester abortions require a surgical procedure. Learn more about the different procedures here.
